Yeah, a little skeptical of a Georgia Jeep. Been watching Nevada, California, Arizona, and New Mexico closely.

There are some good ones, down this way, but there are some rust buckets, too. People tend to leave them out, topless for years, and we get rain like a rain forest, in the southeast. They get covered with wet pine straw, and leaves.

Caught the Bug
Looks like the passenger floor has been replaced and not too cleanly. Other than that and an obvious Macco quality paint job, it looks pretty good. Way below the $25,000 average asking price of a Scrambler. Does the hard half top come with it?

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Looks like I can get a whole new floor from Omix Ada for $863. Some people online say it goes for even cheaper.

On the other hand, if it's solid I might not spend the money, I'd just run it and maybe put just the front section of weather duty carpet in to cover it. Also, never mind about the half top question. I forgot you wanted to put in a third row seat and would probably want the full soft top anyhow. The half tops can be expensive if you wanted one and it didn't come with it.

Yes, definitely learning as I go as to the pics I want. The stock photo from 20 feet away always looks good.

Always seems like diamond plate is hiding something, the one from Idaho looks clean

Yeah, definitely wary of that. I should be getting more pics from both sellers tomorrow and I'll post them up. Fingers crossed.

So...I just reserved a Dodge Ram 1500 and car carrier to drive to Utah and buy this guy (I hope...no surprises) this weekend. Fingers crossed! If anyone has reservations about it, speak now!
