Default Some advice please?

Hi, im new here but i am considering the purchase of a cherokee. (Got this website off a decal lol). I believe it is stock but the fenders are cut up really bad to fit a set of BFG AT KO's 31x10.50 15s under it. it has almost no interior nor muffler. The rear gate is unrepairable and it has a power steering leak. Good motor and trans from what i could tell. would $350 be an alright price on the purchasing side of it? BTW very rusty..

id say yeah. Its worth that in scrap. I buy cars like that all the time. Id take the rims and tires off at the scrap yard and keep them. You basically have free rims and tires and whatever parts you want/can take off. Im sure some parts are good, so if you dont want to get it then buy it and then buy a jeep of a similar year and use it for parts. For 350 or less (id try to talk him down to at least 300) I dont think you can go wrong.

I talked him down from 500. I am aware he bought it for 200. i was gonna take it and run it until it dies but its too ugly to be a DD. I bought the tires for 50 bones and called it a day. (needed them for my explorer). I appreciate the help though guys.
