I just bought my 2nd Jeep. The 1st was a 2011 Patriot which I put a 3" lift on. I did a few other mods but nothing crazy. I have now bought a 07 Wrangler X Unlimited. It has a six inch lift with no body lift. 35 " tires. 10,000 lb wench. 3.8L with a 6 speed manual. Interior is almost like brand new. It only has 53,000 miles. The lift kit and tires were installed about 20,000 miles ago. Clean Carfax and Autocheck by Experian. I had 2 mechanics check it and it has all new rotors and calibers. They found very slight play in the track bar. I am replacing the track bar and am installing a Rough Country duel steering stabilizer. I am also going to upgrade the stereo. I will also install storage in the back for an SBR. I am going to replace the soft top do to a broken zipper on the back window. I drove her.home 1,200 miles with no problems from Ohio to Colorado.

Nice find! Half doors are great, I've been keeping an eye out for a set for a while now...
Personally I'd skip the "dual" stabilizer, as they don't do anything other than catch on rocks and cost more $$$.
For storage, if you don't need the back seat, there are some awesome options that give plenty of secure storage options inside (and on top).
Enjoy!

For storage I'm going with the flat Hornady gun safe. It's only about 6" tall and will hold an SBR quite nicely. The duel stabilizer was only 150 and it's already ordered so it is what it is. Due to my back problems, I probably won't be doing a lot of rock crawling. I got this primarily for hunting and getting through the snow. I live on a dirt road and don't get any snow plowing out here except for what the farmers do.
