If you do your work fine but price is a little high to my thinking for 1/4
of a million miles! If your in a rust country, look under the carpet on the
driver's side.

Things to check.
rocker panels, ensure they are in tact, if the jeep has running boards the
rockers will rust out.
check the passenger side floor, with the exhaust and cat sitting under it
the passenger floor will rust out first.
check the floor in the cargo area, being above the gas tank will cause water
and moisture to get trapped.
That's pretty much it on the body side of it, mechanical side is pretty
straight forward.

Bit high on the milage, but if it's been kept in good shape
and most importanly, had the oil changed regularly, it should
be fine. One thing though, 200,000 miles is roughly the time you
should replace the timing chain on the I-6 engine.

I'd also be checking under the carpet and around the wheel wells,
door corners, etc. for rust.
