I hate going to Sam's Club on a Saturday, but when I saw this it made the trip worth it. I just wanted to know if the owner is here on Mud. Great looking cruiser.

Here is another pic
im in CA now! updated my location a couple days ago. thank god i'm not in new england right now
tech related... my truck is now parked in a steep driveway. There are a couple water stains in the drive way where I have parked and once I went outside after a 30 minute drive to find some coolant dripping on the driveway. I could feel the coolant coming from the upper left side of the water pump. I have tightened all the hose clamps and checked the torque on all the bolts and I haven't seen another leak. But I'm not so sure that the leak came from the hoses. Is there somewhere else the coolant could leak out from in that area?

Possibly the water pump gasket. On my previous Cruiser, I discovered that the PO never used a gasket.

You better put some rust on that thing so the CT residency is believable
okay weep hole... i'll have to look into that and I guess it's time to buy a spare waterpump. sure the doors are from ehsan in pakistan. bought them in 2007.
The door panels have warped since it was made with crappy cardboard backing but here is what they looked like new.

there is some rust if you look hard enough
You so lucked out when you got those. What were they $600? You couldn't make one door for $600 now.
Yup. 2000 or so for the top doors and rear doors shipped

I've only been to Lincoln, CA once. That was in January 1996. When I left took this with me. Can't remember the name of the couple I bought it from but while gassing it up someone commented how it looked like they found someone to buy their old truck. By the tone they were saying a sucker who bought a piece of junk. Thanks to Pardion on this site I was able to help out and be a garbage collector.
