Hello! It looks like this is a pretty good group you bunch have going on here. It seems that I have the luck of saving a 94 J30 from its previous owner. Its red and has seen some better days. A trusted mechanic friend of the family looked it over and tuned it up so the mechanics seem pretty good. The only thing that seems that are going to need attention are a sticking sunroof (push up on the liner of the panel and it works fine, gonna have to look at it), radio is not working. The previous owner was a little old lady who sadly can't drive anymore, so the outside has some scrapes and wounds on the bumper.

So my 1st questions are:
1.The front bumper is pushed in where the side marker is. Can that just be pushed back out?
2. Is the radio worth trying to fix or replacing with stock? Never heard what it sounds like and was wondering if i should just get something else, if so any suggestions?
3. Any good tips and suggestions always welcome. :)

Thanks!

Because its just plastic You should be able to take the bumper off and just push out the dent. The paint will probably be chipped or you will have some stretch marks where it was pushed in.
I would just go with a new stereo. Technology is so much better these days and you can easily fit a stereo with a DVD display in there. I think the old Bose speakers were pretty much made of cardboard and are pretty rotted by now so I'm sure you can find a lot better speakers out there.

Welcome to the forum!!!

It's cheaper and you will get more features by getting a new stereo head unit then trying to fix the old one.
