If you're looking for something that doesn't need much work PM me, I am thinking of selling/trading my 97 for a pickup, AC just went out on me but it's not a very expensive fix.

I didn't end up buying it, the price was way to much,
It had the "new" engine, but he had no receipts... So as far as that goes every engine is "new"...
And once he uploaded clearer pictures I found that the tailpipe was hanging on the ground, and there was scratches/dents high as your knee would sit in the cab, along with rear quarter damage, that was beyond repair.
I concluded from the pictures that the uni-rails where totaled, asked if he'd negotiate and got hung up on haha.
I'll be rebuilding my 95 engine, thanks for all the input guys!

Sounds like you are better off. I find most people have no idea how to price a car and/or try to hide stuff from you. It's getting to the point where I don't know who I dislike more, the dealer or the private party.

I got the same issues over and over.
I was in the market for at least 3 months, and always the same.
Sales by owner was even worst than dealerships, at least here in FL dealers has to offer 30 days of limited warranty.
I went thru at least 10 to 13 jeeps that looked nice in the pics but where terrible in person.

When I was looking at Wranglers, it was amazing how much people tried to hide blatant frame rot.
