I agree... If I had the storage I would maybe just keep it pull it off insurance and use it as a learning car (welding, bodywork pulls etc).... Been wanting to take up welding... but wife would have a fit... And happy wife happy life... So thinking this is probably not in my best interest...

@tommudd The chassis is good there is little to no rust on that surprising to me but the cross members have a lot of scaling and rust... and the pinch welds in sections are shot... I haven't taken off all the plastic **** that is on there but I would assume I would find more the more I dig....

Hi all! New to the forum here and not real familiar with Jeeps... My father can no longer drive and has a 2005 Jeep Liberty Limited with 78k miles on it. I am thinking about purchasing it from him for my daughter. Trying to figure out a fair price... The vehicle is pretty rusted around the...
