Coolest person you know!
I think I am right behind you Nick...different reasons, but probably getting out of the 100 series soon. It would be sweet to find a Benz like yours too!
Nice ride! I'm on my 34th car/motorcycle in roughly 12 years, so I know nothing is truly permanent. If you miss wheeling a 100 or LC in general, you can always come back. Good luck hanging onto the license with the new ride though - I just rented an R8 V10 for my girlfriend's bday (yes I'm that lucky that she actually wanted that), and I can tell you if I had that much power on tap daily I would not have the freedom to be typing this message right now

I sure do miss it!
Many reasons for selling it. I wanted to get out of the 100 and get into something that I can actually wheel hard and not have to worry about beating it up...I also needed a vehicle that didn't require a step ladder for the ladies.
It's going to a good home, the new owner and I talk frequently and I can tell you the "2000UZJ" legend will only get better. Needless to say I'm already first in line when he sells it. I will let Mr. Gary fill us in on the plans once he takes delivery of it.

How soon until you sticker up the 55? 
Good luck with the cruise missile.

Good talkin to ya. Our rigs are pretty similar although you probably wheel it harder than I do.
Sad to see ya go man. Maybe you can pick up an 80 and not worry about beating it up when wheeling

Forget about the 80. Your wheeling will soon out grow that too. Buy a built mini truck or 40.
Chad is absolutely on the money.... which is what I told Nick on the telephone.
Sorry to see you sold your Hundy Nick, enjoy the E55!

Sheesh...two 100 series stalwart contributor's gone within a short span. Next we'll hear that spressomon traded his in for a diesel Grand Cherokee and hoser is going to Australia to get a 70 series!
In all seriousness, enjoy the fast car...shouldn't be too hard to keep the rubber side down on that thing. Speeding violations, on the other hand...

Sorry to see it go I enjoyed reading your posts and build a lot.
Hope I can get mine built up even close to as nice
Might I ask what the hell that is just behind the drivers side window?
Creepy photobomber is my guess, but it looks eerie.
Someone got a free truck but paid for all the goodies. Dam, you should of sold a few items on the side
So did your parts guys take care of you after the issues?

I iz here. Still looking for a 100. I guess I didn't realize how hard a "clean" 100 is. Which sucks since mine is in Alaska .
The seats were mounted to the OEM seat sliders and then two 1/4" steel beams for the center support. The seats remained electric for forward/backward but became manual for the reclining. I would do it again (and will one day). The support was incredible off road and did not bounce around at all on washboard.
