It's time to let go - I'm selling pigwald. $20k OBO. We had a great run but I have to move on. Feel free to contact me at fj55.4.sale[AT]gmail.com
Life on the east coast has brought out some bubble rust as seen in the linked picture album below. There are a few small nicks/dings the here and there and some of the paint on the bumpers has flaked.
It runs great, no issues whatsoever - has been my daily driver for 3 years. 7100 miles since resto/mod.
Here's the picture album on photobucket:

I bought it off eBay from a guy in NJ who bought it from a mudder who put in a ton of great work, you can read part of the thread here:

Once I got it in 2010, I dropped it off at IPOR for some work and then to Urban LC for some more. Great experiences with both, moved to FL in between. Here's a link to Urban's build pics and a list of the collective work:
