1997 Jeep Wrangler SE
EXTERIOR
The Jeep is in good condition for it’s age, being 27 years old with 132K on the odometer. When we purchased the Jeep we were surprised to find most of the body ID tags intact on the vehicle and all the sheet metal is original. The windshield is even original with no cracks. The paint is in decent shape and looks good from 10 feet, but there are multiple imperfections from rock chips, scratches, and areas where the paint has started to flake in a few corners where the body lines meet around the lower front grille, cowl vent, and top of windshield. The rear swing door aluminum hinges have oxidized. There is some surface rust on the frame too, so I included pictures for full transparency. The tub is excellent and shows original paint over spray under the rails. I tried my best to include some photos of the undercarriage in key areas that could use a wire brushing / protective coating. The front fender sheet metal has popped as you can see in the photos, so we are providing new replacement parts. The aluminum wheels are aftermarket and have scratches and oxidization. Overall, I think she is in about the best shape you could possibly expect from a Jeep that has split most of its time on the East Coast beaches and the Midwest. It is obvious that prior owners cared for the vehicle.

INTERIOR
The interior is in good condition with no rips or tears in the seats. The rear bench is in great shape as well. The steering wheel leather is chipping and some of the plastic parts have faded or have been marred. The carpet is in throw away condition and should be replaced. The good news is that the floor is solid and has been kept from the elements. I took a few photos with the carpet up so you can see that the floor is solid with no rot.
