Yet another 4x4 arrives!!!
 
3 Attachment(s)
I have been on a run of 4x4's this year! I just picked up this one last night. Its a 72 1/2 4x4. Other than the incorrect grill and the rallys, it is all unmolested with 152K miles on it. Still has the original spiral shocks!!! It is a rust bucket though!! I am going to do another body swap with this one.

Another 4x4,eh? How many more do you think you'll get before winter? :lol:
I think it'll look good with the ochre truck body on it.I think the stance looks good as is though with the rallys and all terrain tires.What did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking?

Hey Joe, I bid on that truck last week on ebay and got outbid at the end, then it came up on there again this weekend, he emailed me back and said he had a deadbeat bidder so he relisted it. I was going to bid on his new auction and seen it ended early, now I know why.:) Good buy, it will look nice!!!

So what is up with thebase equipment, I have never seen it listed on the spid three times before?

Re: Yet another 4x4 arrives!!!
 
Looks like med olive in the glove box ,and some odd options on the spid.

Are you keeping it ochre or back to green?:confused:

Joesjunk 10-09-2007 09:56 PM

Re: Yet another 4x4 arrives!!!
 
I gave $1000.00 for it.

Not sure what the base equipment listings are??? Any one know???

I am going to leave it Ochre, just a simple body swap to make a nice looking driver.

I'd help ya out if you weren't about 3 hours away, and I didn't have to watch the boys every weekend so that the wife can work. My brother and I used to do plenty of body swaps. Can't wait to see thisone come together! Are you going to clean up and paint the chassis and drivetrain on this one? ...Joe

Joesjunk 10-10-2007 06:42 PM

Re: Yet another 4x4 arrives!!!
 
Thanks for the offer to help. I have a good crew of buddys here that like to help!
I just think I am going to clean everything real good, I dont want to get too detailed with this one.
