We have a custom, low-mileage (98K) Wrangler built for improved street driving that’s also a very capable overlanding and rock-crawling rig. Last year, we took it to Easter Jeep Safari and did a desert trip in Northern Nevada. We’re including all the gear you’ll need for adventure.

The first owner was a doctor in Arizona who had a professional shop finish the initial build. We bought it from the second owner in 2014 and made additional modifications. The Jeep has never been wrecked, smoked in, or seen a winter. I have all the build and service documents from the original sticker through the latest. We are selling because we purchased a new Wrangler. We have the clean CA title. The Jeep is in Menlo Park, California, USA. Price is $26,500 (KBB High $18K + $8.5K mods)

Thanks, David. What a coincidence. I'm looking forward to our next wheeling trip with our new Wrangler! I'm hoping to find a good home for our 2012. It's old, but has been reliable and everything is in good shape (except the AEV rear camera was not working yesterday).
