Any way to estimate more than scrap value of a Jeep from one photo

I definitely wouldn't be working on the car myself, I'd be just a middle-man between her and a salvage yard or a mechanic.

Smart man ! There's a lot less time and effort if you can act as a go-between.

One little quickie in regard to rust.The vehicles here generally rust out from back to front. Just slide in under the back and check out the back six inches of frame and cross members with a flashlight. If they're clean ... there's a reasonably good chance that everything forward is in fairly good shape in regard to rust.

The back bumper looks okay and i'm not seeing rust staining or paint blistering on any of the body panels in the picture.



That's a good sign.
