So just looked at a 2005 4.0 6 speed red with 70,000 miles in Texas. No frame rust. Oil all over, starting high so valve cover gasket needed, but I checked oil and was WAY low. Seller is clueless about car maintenance or Jeeps, so didn’t even know. College student (girl) and top is trashed so outside and interior faded AF and paint has some clear coat peeling.
She’ll take 12k, but I’m curious if there is any way to look for running low oil possible or serious damage symptoms? I drove it, 6 speed shifted great, ran fine.
Also, interior what is the option for bringing the dash and such to life?
If she’d take 10k that seems like it’d be a great red project to get going (I’m 110k miles, so would be trading down 40k miles to a 70k miles jeep.
