I wanted it primarily for the cloth seats and door cards, but also need a straight and rust free front left fender and hood, in addition to other random stuff. Well worth the$1000 in my opinion.
Found this on Craigslist yesterday.
Someone came by and offered more for the cruiser. Paid cash and hauled it away.

Bastards!!!
Plastic surround for the shifters, and cold box, and no plans to hook it up. I can't get the knob off the transfer case selector, feels like I'm going to break something if I put anymore pressure on it.

To put things in prospective, I bought a new 93 Ford Explorer for around $16K
Finally decided to take the homemade center console out of my 97, along with the cloth shifter surround with side pockets.
My contact found me an OEM shifter surround along with cold box center console in Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately, they are gray and will be getting professionally painted to...
