I have recently purchased a 1998 TJ and knew it had some rust from being on the beach in south Texas. I took it in for some minor repairs and was told by the Mech it was so rusty he would not replace the shocks for fear of breaking off a bolt in the frame. When I look at it, I see alot of surface rust, and lookd like the muffler had just been replaced. All the parts undeneath have rust on them and might pose a problem when trying to do say a break job. My question is, should I take on a project to restore the rust bucket?
 

I thought this was going to be about a CJ! I have never heard of a TJ being a rust bucket before!
