Thoughts?

Pretty cheap. Definitely seen some salt before. I'd bet the inside of the frame isn't exactly rust free. Someone also drilled a giant hole in the side of the frame near the front crossmember. Is that factory? Don't remember ever seeing something like that before.

EDIT: That hole definitely isn't factory from my 2 minute google-fu. I bet the nutserts broke off inside the frame due to rust and that was someone's way to fix the problem. I'd pass.

LJ looks in decent shape - Impact Orange with gr8tops half cab - makes me a little nervous that it mentions some rust spots, but no pictures of the frame. Might be worth a look - still pretty sexy

I agree. But on the other end of the spectrum, I do have an appreciation for the old school lowriders, which really make about as much sense as the donk movement. This one is Gypsy Rose, arguably one of the most famous lowriders of all time...

Fair enough - I can kind of appreciate donks in the sense that they're ridiculous for the sake of being ridiculous... and to be fair, I don't dig the over-the-top monster truck jeeps either

I totally understand. Plenty of good TJs to be had out there.

I've actually thought of buying a 05-06 Wk with the Hemi for my next project/trail rig.

If only I had the money

I don't get the mind of some Craigslist posters...sure the price is ok, for what you most likely are getting, but really, a photo like this, the top all wrinkled up, lying in the gravel (great for the plastic windows...)?

My only complaint would be the diamond plate. Still, I think this would be a perfect trade for @Chris! He needs this!

That thing is seriously awesome!

That's Clint Rivera's ride (See the thread "Ruby: The story of a Jersey Girl"). I saved the original ad from where he bought it. The vin numbers match.
