Should I buy this car?

I've been looking for a 90s-era Wrangler recently and I happened upon this Craigslist listing:

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/cto/1980794305.html

Seems like it's in pretty good condition and the price is great, only problem is some minor cosmetic damage. Any pointers before I go through with this?

Nah you can fix that with a heat gun and a can of Rustoleum

If the price is right he really shouldn't have any trouble moving that thing. The tires and wheels are probably worth damn near what he's asking. People into tinkering with their cars ABSOLUTELY LOVE finding wrecked/totaled cars for sale as they are usually cheap and have tons of good parts for their project. I bought a non running car myself once, had it towed home, pillaged the parts I needed for my own project, and actually managed to get it running and sold it for what I paid.

End buzzkill, continue please. :v:

Hey I used to live around there when I was a kid! Also yes, those wheels and tires are probably almost worth what he's asking...

1. Jeep's resale value..... Gooooood

2. Jeep's are one of the best and easiest cars to work on. I could probably change your brake pads and rotors on a jeep in about 35 minutes. You could put in a whole radiator and Mount the coolant reservoir in under an hour.

3. Jeep's are just a straight forward FUN vehicle. (i.e. MUDDIN!!!)

Looks like a pretty hard impact....I'd be concerned about frame damage.

That'll buff right out!
