Just a shout out from Ormond Beach,Florida!
Look forward to the fun!
Just bought a used red 2003 TJ.

Nice buy! That thing looks clean, and it's my favorite color. Looks like it might have a mild lift on it too!

What do you have planned for it?
 
$ 10,000. Super clean and not a spot of rust. 134,000miles.
6cyl 5spd
3"lift
Documented maintenance.
Leave as is and drive it like I stole it:)

Wow, you got a great deal then, a killer deal! Especially since it has no rust, that's hard to find these days. Though you are in Florida, which is probably a good place for rust free vehicles I would assume (as long as they weren't living on the beach).

I don't blame you. It looks great the way it is!
 
Awesome, love Flame Red Jeeps! I'm kinda biased though...
