If you are wanting to make an offroading beast out of it go for the Teal colored one. If you want an XJ that will just be pretty for a mall crawler, get the black 60th anniversary one.

I'd go with the blue one. And ask them if they'll throw in the camera with the deal.

Try to get the cash together and offer the guy $2500 cash for the Teal Jeep. I bet he takes it.

Teal one, better cylinder head, brand new tires, and a high pinion front axle. The regulator will be about 100 bucks from www.rockauto.com .
