I should have kept my 98' a couple years ago. Body was rusty but, the engine only had 95k on it. Then again, hard to find a rust free chassis. I got lucky with my 00'. Good engine, chassis, body, interior: $3,200.

Good luck with the new build.

Here's mine after I took out a light pole, I'm glad it was a crispy one. I repaired it in my backyard.

Build a frame and straighten the body out a lil and you should be good to go if thats all the damage done. Flipped mine twice and managed to pop the roof back out both times. Id try my best to save it if it was my Jeep.

Look at the driver side rear door. The roof is caved 6", enough that it knocked down my headliner. Crushed one of the rear corners, twisted the uniframe, could only open one door.

Which part wasn't bad?

Got my return too. Getting stainless braided extended brake lines, pads (ceramic or ?) , drilled and slotted rotors and greaseable poly bushings for the new leafs I got for my replacement lift. I think I'll have everything I'll need then.
