You can determine the value mostly by the mileage and condition. You can consider the modifications to a certain point, but never expect to get dollar for dollar out of those. Some buyers like modifications, some want stock and do their own. So if you know what the dollar value of the upgrades is, cut that in half and start there, but don't expect to just add that to the book value. It also depends on the region where a sale is happening. A rust free TJ with reasonable miles (which you cannot state 'most of which are tow miles behind RV by original owner', because if towed correctly, no miles accumulate) will fetch at least book value and then some.
 
So you know, towing a Jeep does not add miles to the odometer, so be leery when a seller tells you that.
 
California Jeeps come at a price, I know, I have bought 2 or them. I would expect that vehicle to be priced somewhere between $11K and $14K
