I know it sucks going round and round to test drive stuff...but, armed w/ what you now have, I do think that is your best bet, next steps, if you truly want one still.
Know this, it'll be easy to find a 3.6 or diesel auto, but good luck finding the manual...you'll probably find a 5.7 swap before you find a stick on a lot...they just don't sell, and if they are used it's cuz someone sold it to get an auto 
And to make it even more difficult - in a 2 door 
Good luck..I'll toss something on here if I see anything pop up  |
Seems I should just stick with the JK then. I'm not budging on the manual, and the 2 door I'd only give up if there was a perfect example of a V8 swap already done.

I've driven and worked on both. For what I'm doing, the JK seems the better buy. I'll miss the 4.0 but the suspension seems much improved.

I'd rather argue manual vs auto then politics...

I'd love one, always thought they were the cats ass. But holy unicorn... Rare to be rust free and expensive as all get out even rusted out!
