    First Wrangler

    Thanks for the welcomes guys. I live on long island NY. There is some rust but not all that bad. The frame is solid. I paid 3k. Seemed like a decent price for the area. Stock YJ's in similar shape seem to go for about 2500 around here. It runs well, but I think it needs a tstat as its...
