Random question, I am looking for a non-rust belt 2003-2006 TJ or LJ. Does anyone have any good sources? I am doing the normal online stuff but was hoping someone might have a suggestion on someone who specializes.

Thanks
 
If you want to spend the money, clean low mileage TJs are on Bring A Trailer weekly. Also check eBay I have bought Jeeps from AZ, Ca, Texas, Utah, Georgia
 
Bring a trailer has some good options but tends to be pricey. I have found a few through Facebook and eBay that are intriguing. A few that are price reduced do to some basic issues… Thanks!
 
Look in eastern WA and OR, basically desert and often overlooked as a good rust-free vehicle source, everyone thinks down south.
 
Down here in the South we have mud and folks love to bury their Jeeps in the mud and rarely clean out the frames correctly. So yes while you rarely find one rotted out due to salt you have to be careful about the frames rotting from the inside out due to mud caked in them.
 
Get too far south, mostly south east and you have beach runners. They look worse than Ohio winter beaters.
