ABQIRONPIG heads to South America

[ABQIRONPIG]

I'm hunting for a 60 or 80 series that already has some mods. And before you direct me, I'm all over the "classifieds" here on the forum, I just thought if someone knew of one locally here in Austin that isn't posted here it would be easier for me to go inspect.

Thanks,
ABQIRONPIG

Yup let me know if you want a list of upgrades setting it up to expedition type camping.

I'll sell you my diesel 80 for $20k

 

[ABQIRONPIG]

yeah, my budget is quite a bit lower as I can do a lot of the mods myself..

 

[davegonz]

I'd fly in and grab this one.

I GOT MY EYE ON TUCKERS RIGHT NOW....It seems the 94 is a damn good year to get, especially with the lockers and brass rad.

Well, here it is, all ready for South America!!!

I truly wish I had built everything on this rig, but I bought it as is with the exception of some maintenance items I'm going to have done like the water pump, timing belt, every hose/belt and a wheel bearing.
