I am looking at buying this jeep--is this frame too far gone it is a 1999 TJ in the north east. so hard to find one that is in great shape out here. i feel like it may need alot of work to clean up and get on the road....

I wouldn't touch that rig considering the frame has already been repaired. Why not fly down south and pick up a rust free TJ from the Carolinas or GA?
 
i am looking for a unicorn---red or green automatic with half doors. a red TJ was the first jeep i ever had and I want to get that or a green one like my last TJ...
 
In pic #3 it looks like the skid is pulled away from the frame like the inserts are coming out. Also the lets paint over the rust is telling of better days.
