Jeep in a Box

Hey everyone, I am trying to get my business going again. I decided to start a gofundme page to try and get it moving along. I had my business back in Illinois last year and it was going good. My wife wanted to move back to Lexington SC, so I closed up shop and we moved back. I met a lot of really good people and made some great friends while doing something that I loved. I am hoping to get it going again down here and hopefully get it to where I can be the go to person for quality used Jeep parts in the southeast and eventually nationwide. Any help is appreciated.

What exactly is your business going to be? Selling lifts and stuff? Installs or no? Or just everything jeep related?

What I was doing was buying Jeeps(mainly YJs) and stripping them down and selling parts.I would like to get to the point where I could eventually carry some lines of new products.
 
I have taken a good bit of criticism on a couple forums for my post, so let me try to give a little better description.

Hey guys, my name is DJ. I have started a gofundme page to see if anyone would like to donate to get my business up and running again. A little history on my business. I had a full time job back home(Chicago) and got laid off. So while I was out of work I though I would give opening my own business a shot. I started out buying a few Jeeps and parting them out. I got to a point where I opened a shop and had it going for about 6 months until we made the decision to move back to SC to be close to my wifes family. I met a lot of great people and made some good friends in the process. I was able to help people get parts for their Jeeps, wether it was to get them back on the trail or to get them to work the next day. I had a customer call me that was leaving the next day for MOAB and I ended up driving an hour there and back to deliver the parts so he could make his trip.
I now have a full time job working 12-13 hours a day. I am trying to get this going again part time and eventually full time again if it works out. I heard about the gofundme site and saw plenty of people that were opening a business on there so I thought I would give it a shot.

I have a goal to try and get into some sort of shop by spring. The best part of doing it was I was able to do something every day that I loved. How many people can say they have done that? I am a fellow Jeeper and I know how it is when you need a hard to find part and we all know how rare it is to find a Wrangler in a junkyard.
