Good Idea?

Keifer...... seriously brutha..... that XJ needs more than just bolt on body parts. The unibody area (cowl and lower pilar where it becomes the firewall - especially where the door hinges are) is fawked up. You'll never get a door to bolt back on correctly without having to get the area under all that damage straightened.

For $1000...... you're getting screwed. It's worth that much or more in parts possibly, but to fix that to where a windshield will sit back into it's channel and seal, and to get a door to align and seal..... it's gonna need time on a body shop's frame jig.

Walk away unless he'll take less. Seriously.
 
i am gonna try and talk him down to maybe 800 im not too worried since it's gonna be a trail rig anyway plus my friends dad owns a bodyshop and i could get it fixed in a few weeks
 
Awrite then. If you have a body guy willing to take care of you and fix that, then you're ahead of the game there. Just wanted to be sure you didn't get in over your head again with hidden unibody damage like your other rig.

$800 is fair. Not great, but fair.
