IMG-20120303-00002.webp This is a nearly complete project rig designed to be a sand and rock toy. It still needs things like the alternator, power steering pump, and the brackets and pulleys. There is no battery or wiring harness in the engine bay. Stock drive shafts are included, but they don't look like they have been modified to fit yet. The original owner/builder passed away a couple of years ago, and I am trying to help the family out. There are no receipts or documents to verify details, so the parts descriptions are just general observations that I made while looking the rig over a few days ago. It is parked in a work shop just north of Phoenix, so it is in a dry, clean climate.

The body is in very good shape. It has a little surface rust where the front fenders were trimmed. The inside of all 4 fenders has been undercoated, but I can't see any signs of rust or body work. The inside of the back half of the body has been splatter painted, but the front floor has not. It has only very minimal surface rust under the carpet in the foot wells. It has a black Best Top with both half and full doors. It has a full 6 point cage that has been powder coated. It includes a set of bucket seats and a fuel tank that fits under both seats.

Frame looks like it was powder coated, no signs of rust or rot. Axles look the same. They appear to be originals, both have ARB lockers hooked up with compressor in engine bay. Looks like after market disc brakes. Front axle has high steer setup with a Saginaw PS box on the front of the frame. Also has a Warn XD 9000. It sits on Swamper 36 x 14.5 x 15's in near new condition.

Driveline starts with what looks like a Ron Davis aluminum radiator. Power is a Chevy small block. It is new, never been run. Chrome block huggers have no signs of engine ever running. Not sure of displacement or compression. Looks like a package deal from either Summit or Jeggs. New Edelbrock carb and fuel pump, new Jeggs starter, MSD ignitions system. Transmission looks like a new/rebuilt 700R4. Transfer case is a new looking Orion.

There is a lot of good stuff here. It doesn't need much for parts, but it does need a lot of hours to get it put together and working good. You can PM me for more info and a few more pix. You can email Todd at <anm100@iwon.com> for details about price and availability. He is asking $4000 OBO
