I have two Jeep’s and an opportunity to
Buy maybe the nicest LJ around. The LJ I’m considering has 22k miles and is FULLY and tastefully built. It’s $35k

My current Jeeps are a primo 98 TJ. 125k on the odo but nothing on the car has 125k. 3 years & 5k ago I installed a new engine with all new accessories (clutch, header, water pump, etc etc. It has leather power BMW seats, hardtop, soft top, brand new 35” KM3 on new Method wheels, new shocks, Currie steering, chrome alloy shafts, winch bumpers etc. it really is primo.

2nd Jeep I literally purchased last week. 2006 LJ. Hardtop, full doors, newer 33’s. Jeep is in very good condition and no rust. I’m replacing the bumpers, stereo and servicing the whole thing. It runs really well. 4.0/ auto.

Thinking about selling both to buy the built LJ vs building my own LJ. I know building the truck would cost more but I’d end up with exactly what I want. That said, the 22k mile LJ is amazing.

$10,000 for the TJ and $13-14,000 for the LJ (depending on mileage). Check your area to see what similar Jeeps go for.
p.s. No LJ is worth $35,000 IMO. I sold my lifted, mint TJ with 26,000 miles on it for $14,000.
 
Yeah, I’m not so sure. Almost a million TJs were made vs 55,000 LJs.

They are going up, and the LJs with under 25k original miles? Hens teeth!

bet 10 years ago you wouldn’t have expected to see a Porsche 912 bring over $50k... and the nicest ones $85k+!!
 
Not sure what the Jeeps are worth but that 1/3 sheet of plywood is worth a mint right now!! :)
 
How much for the pedo rig in the background?
That truck used to be a Red Cross ERV. 37,000 miles 7.3 power stroke converted to four-wheel-drive and lifted 6 inches. It’s also got solar, Victron energy goodiesAnd a lot more. Working on the full wet bath, kitchen etc. it’s in Overland vehicle. I’ve been offered 100 K upon completion
 
They're worth what someone is willing to pay in Your Area. A western vs eastern rust issue or abundance of jeeps vs hard to find jeeps.
