My Father bought this Jeep used, it was about 10 years old and had roughly 110,000 miles on it. It has always run good and been very dependable. As far as I know it has never been wrecked. I will attempt to describe the good the bad and the ugly as honestly as I can.

THE BODY: The paint looks ok for its age. Plenty of minor scratches and blemishes. As far as I know the car has never been repainted.  No serious rust. Minor surface rust along the bottom of the drivers side front door. Small dent at the bottom of the drivers side front door as well. Fist sized dent on the roof above the passenger side front door, (a storm dropped a tree limb on the car). There is  a small hole drilled in the roof for a  "CB" antenna. It has been sealed with silicone. It was there when we bought the car. The passenger side rear tail-light lens is cracked and broken, (the clear lens over the back-up light ). It has never been a problem as far as state inspection goes. Water leaks into the interior around the windshield and front doors. It is annoying during heavy rain. Silicone was applied around the windshield, it was a sloppy  job and it did not stop the leaks. The front doors would not close tight enough to turn off the interior light, so we removed the bulb from the dome light. Years ago, the driver's side front door fell off, hinges and all. We had a body shop align it and weld it back on. In 2012 the driver's front door refused to open. We spent $190.00 having the door latch hardware replaced. All doors and the tailgate open and close as they should. There is no broken or cracked glass, all the windows roll up and down as they should.

MECHANICAL and ELECTRIAL: Six cylinder, 4.0L,(242CI) engine runs strong. It uses about a quart of oil between regular oil changes. The automatic transmission shifts as it should and does not leak. A used transfer case was installed in 2009 by a professional mechanic. Four wheel drive works as it should. The speedometer and odometer have not been accurate since the used transfer case was installed, they read too low. Headlights, tail-lights, turn signals work as they should. The oil pressure sender has failed at least twice and caused the oil pressure gage to be inaccurate and it weeps small amounts of oil. We had the AC system recharged in 2012, then the AC/Heater fan quit working. The neutral safety switch on the transmission is failing. This switch tells the car that it is in park or neutral and allows it to start. A professional mechanic adjusted the switch so you can push forward on the gear shift lever in order to start the car. In 2011 a new battery was installed. Also we replaced the spark plugs, distributer cap, ignition wires, rotor button, air filter, and installed a remanufactured starter. The plastic tanks of the radiator are getting old and brittle. The upper inlet where the hose attaches broke off and there was nothing for the hose to clamp onto. I built it up with epoxy and then epoxied a piece of copper water pipe on top of that to give the hose something to clamp on to. This patch might last for the life of the car or it might fail next week. A new upper radiator hose and clamps were installed.  New front brake pads were installed in 2010. One tire is good, three tires are just ok. Good spare tire. The check engine and low washer fluid "idiot lights" stay on most of the time, as far as I can tell they mean nothing. This car has had less than 2,500 miles put on it since my father died in 2010.

Interior: The front driver's seat has a small  rip in the vinyl. The carpets and head liner are ok. For the most part the interior looks like what you would expect on a 19 year old car. The review mirror came unglued from the windshield, it is not broken it just needs to be glued back on. The car smells musty inside like old wet carpet. It is noticeable but not bad. Solid air fresheners from the dollar store help.
