Default Keep it? Sell it? Build it?

I picked up an 88 xj a few weeks ago. 4.0. 5 speed ba-10. Not ax-15....:/. 157k miles. All stock. Dana 35 rear. Runs and drives perfect. Got it for only $1100.

You guys think it's worth keeping or selling? Or do I build it as a cheap wheeler.

What you guys think. All opinions are welcome

Oh ok. I'm not cutting anything. And I was thinking about painting it original color again. But that would require the chief decals and all that to be remove or covered

If backup vehicle, just drive the wheels off it. Fix nothing. You got years left.
