I guess it depends on how keen you to get a 2 door LJ, it's not getting any easier to find them available. However apart from the wrong tags you could easily spend another $40k plus on that car if you choose to restore it.

Yes agreed entry price is just the start I will see how it goes it has most of the right bits and is running so that is a start

I'd buy it for that. And then I'd drive it as is. Restoring a car is hard work, time consuming and expensive. There's a lot to be said for not pulling a car apart.

FWIW any 2 door little Torana is worth 20k these days .
This one is somewhat complete, so gotta be worth the present 19k.
May not be matching, but I see roller shells with no glass, interior etx etc for more than this?
