Or buy it trim the fender, pull the dent out a bit, lift it and wheel it. You could always make half doors or remove them all together(but to me thats stupid). $1000 bucks seems like a pretty good deal if you want to make it a trail rig.

2000s and 2001s are the cracked head series.

To OP: $1000 is a great price for a 1999. Check the casting number on the head to make sure it's not 0331 as poster I quoted said. If it's not, ****** it.

For the money you would have to put into it to replace the column and rear springs, plus the money to purchase this rig, you could have an XJ with no damage or potential headaches. I say pass, unless you could score it for 500 bucks.
