Worth it?

Found a 98 TJ Sport, 6 cylinder, stick, 107,000 miles runs great, but has a 2" x 6" hole on the driver's floor. Frame seems solid, but surface rust. Got him down to $ 5,800, but concerned about the rust.

Too high. Look around more and find a better body to work with. Dang that seems high.

Seems high for that kind of rust.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll pass on it and keep looking for less rust.
