I love my jeep. I don't regret a dime I have spend on it. I do have a LJ, the longer wheelbase TJ.
That said, I probably wouldn't bother with a YJ, leafers and either renix fuel injection or a carb. Just not worth it. We won't even discuss the rectangular headlights.
Now, it it was a cherry ride, needing zero work, run, don't walk away. You will be alarmed how easy it is to spend money upgrading it. Yes, you will upgrade it...
If someone wants a great deal on a CJ7 needing bit work, I have the deal for you!
