Market Highlights
- The TJ Enthusiast Market: The 1997-2006 Jeep Wrangler is currently seeing a surge in value as a modern classic. Its compact size and coil-spring suspension make it more desirable for many off-roaders than the newer, larger JK or JL models.
- Southern California Premium: Santa Monica cars are prized for being 'rust-free' compared to East Coast examples. A solid TJ frame and body in this region is worth $2,500-$3,500 as a 'roller' even without a working powertrain.
- Project Feasibility: While the engine needs repair, the 4.0L Inline-6 is one of the easiest engines to source and swap. This makes the vehicle an excellent high-margin project for a buyer with mechanical skills or a dedicated shop.
