So let me back up three years... Got divorsed ( thank god!)... Met a great girl who actually enjoys my hobbies. Introduced her to 4 wheeing, a year later got her behind the wheel of my 40(only mistake lol she always wanted to drive!). So we went on the hunt to get her her own rig. After looking at 55's,60's and 80's , narrowed it down to an 80... Found a good deal on a clean '92 fj80 last feb( valentines day) so she wheeled it in calico, shaver area bald mnt, and around Hume lake and buckrock trail this year. So I started planning the up grades to the 80( typical lift , lockers & protection) she goes " god that's like 3 xs the price we bought it for..... So she wants to keep it as a daily driver , then told me what we all want to hear... "you can just find somthing else to build!" so I found a good deal on a '70 scout 800 for $250.00, lol rolling chasis full body hard top and doors, just no motor or trans.... After getting it home made a few calls scored a mid 90's tbi 350 motor complete again cheap.... After much looking and dead ends on cl... Found a turbo 350 and 205 transfer case.... Scored some front seats for $40 bucks . So far comming along nicely just waiting for spring time to really get busy with it, I'll post up some pics soon
