Quick sale at 53K? stolen? or just doesn't work as well as he says it does... :movember:
Two things stick out to me. It's not a Rubicon, and pictures of the axles are suspiciously missing.

Wheels and tires can be replaced, but to support that power you would need a beefy drivetrain.

Agree on the wheels and tires. Those would be the first thing to go.

I definitely don't trust this ad too. something went wrong with this build to unload it at that price... unless he's desperate to avoid a bankruptcy.

Good Morning All...

This would be a blast to drive around...just not on the highway. Top speed...45mph. That would be like a turtle at the Indy 500...

I have...as a kid. A friend of my dad had purchased one in a box and I helped him put it together. It was cool as hell getting to ride around in that thing...and he even let me drive it a couple of times.

Looks like it checks all your boxes, and the price is good. Was I you, I'd jump on it like a new trampoline.
Only real issue is that it's almost 500 miles away. There's an ocean blue one in Louisville, but it's 49k, and missin a couple features this one has.
I was really hopin to get lucky, and find one for 40k. That ain't gonna happen though.
