new jeep guy

Gotta love a kind neighbor. A family a street over had this sitting in front of their house the whole time I lived in my neighborhood, and one day they put the house up for sale, and the jeep moved. I figured that since they kept up-ish on inspection maybe they weren’t interested in selling...

Looking into purchasing a 98 Sahara in good shape. Needs about 2k in repairs. We agreed on $11,500. It has 92k miles and has always been in Texas with no snow. Has some light surface rust on frame. Is this too high for what this car is? I’m new to this
