I like it, looks like mine, but much cleaner. I have a 96 2 door black 5 speed. i just ordered a 2 inch RC lift to gain a little more clearance. Yours is actually nice, so I'd do it up nice with a strong front bumper, recovery points, maybe lift and tires. Whatever suites you best, for how you're gonna use it. I got mine for $400, but you made out like a bandit for $800 with that amount of miles. What kind of rims are those by the way?

Same here, I'm not concerned about how it looks. Mine had nothing wrong with it, I drove it home. They guy was gonna donate it to the fire department so they could crush it for a jaws of life demonstration, sheesh! My jeep was more of a refugee or adoption, haha. The first time I took it offroad I smashed something good and crushed the fender, scratched the entire passenger side, and tore a 6 inch hole in the body. All this was within the 15 minutes I drove it offroad, haha.
