The Light Green one with the orange hood is actually a DaimlerChrysler pre-production model of the Renegade but it spent its entire life in Michigan (most of it on a backlot rotting away) so it has a lot of rust on it. I will be turning it into a strickly off-road toy (topless/doorless)


Sounds interesting. Be sure to post a picture when it's finished.

@Tonkatracker: are these all electric cables, wich are hanging at the outer side of the walls? :eek:


unfortunately yes most of them are, that and cable TV. I just purchased this house in August and am in the process of renovating it. The house was built in 1901 but was 'converted' to 3 separate apartments in the 1977. The house was updated in 1994 but still split into 3 apartments. I am currently working on making it a single family dwelling again, that and I will be adding 10 feet to the back of the house and a two car garage (the garage will actually go where the two green Libertys are) Once the house is done I will only have the one electric wire going down the back of the house to the power meter (since this area has above ground power lines this is unavoidable)

I was forced to drive the rounded-line in 30 inches (762 mm) of water the day after tropical storm Nicole (2010) hit the area. Not the most fun thing I have ever done, but Big Grey didn’t seem to mind.

I turned off of the main road that I live on, onto a dirt road (the only road open at that time, as the state workers and police were closing other conjoining roads down from flooding or complete washout) with farm fields on both sides, which at that point looked like a huge pristine lake that you could go fishing or boating in.

I drove slow and steady, so not to push too much water. The door seals held up pretty good to be factory original. No water came in. Big Grey doesn’t have a snorkel, just the factory high-rise air intake.

Took this photo after the water fording, no problems, just a lot of dirty water grime on the wheels, tires and lower portion of the body. Took a while to clean all up under the chassis.

nice collection :smile:

I am glad that I have the snorkel, but it doesn't even need to be as high as it is, I know I will not be taking it that deep in the water :grin: The deepest I have taken the Liberty was during Hurricane Irene when water was just cresting over the front edge of the hood (I still have water in my fog lights as a souvenir :lol: Some of my past Suzukis/Trackers have also had snorkels and I have taken them up to the windshield in water but they were much simpler/cheaper vehicles with much less electronic and computer controlled equipment.

as for the 77 it needs a few things and I like it but I didn't build it I bought it like it is (which is a first for me) It is a lot of fun though. I got it from a family friend who built it for rock crawling out in California. It is geared way to low to daily drive though.

here is a shot of all of the Libertys together, the blue one is my wife's, while the dark green one is the "spare car" The Light Green one with the orange hood is actually a DaimlerChrysler pre-production model of the Renegade but it spent its entire life in Michigan (most of it on a backlot rotting away) so it has a lot of rust on it. I will be turning it into a strickly off-road toy (topless/doorless)

*drooling over that ’77 model*

I understand snorkels, but could never understand why some company’s make them way taller than the vehicle’s roof. Think about it, you would drown before the vehicle did... :grin: Yours stops at the roof which is nice.

I doubt sorority girls drive Libertys like mine, With the lift, 31 inch Good Year MT/R Kevlars, ARB Air Lockers front and rear, ARB bull bar and Safari Snorkel my KJ is more than capable and I would say that it will go anywhere that your Montero can go.

and technically I have four Libertys (5 Jeeps total as i sold my 98 ZJ)

My 03 Renegade with my 77 Renegade:

Three Libertys??? That's three more than you should have.

I just think they are driven by sorority girls or at least where I live.

The front differential fluid in the Chevrolet has never been changed. It’s been checked over and over, but its still good and at the full level. Still has that pristine gear oil appearance and texture, also no metal shards are present. It’s the original gear oil the workers poured into it at the factory 25 years ago.
