The rarest you'll see is an unmodified, rust free, 4x4.

A two door 5 spd is pretty hard to find. Make it a 91 Chief 2 door 5 spd.

i saw a 2 door 5 sped in the junkyard the other day. One of the cleanest jeeps I've seen. Interior was perfect and no rust at all! It was its first day on the lot. It might have been a cheif but I can't Remember. Had full trim package for the interior as far as I could tell

Does a 2 door 5 speed unmodified with 62k on the clock qualify?

Only 15% of all XJs built are 2 door and the majority of them are auto so a 2 door 5spd like Jimbo Slice is sailing up close enough to see your number.
