Looks like a Bondo Babe to me. The heep is already in the garage (see photo) and probably has A/C...better Mall crawler and grocery get'r for Mrs. I wear the pants in this family. Therefore based on the authority vested in me it's worth 3k...no more and make your first purchase a couple of cans of Krylon metallic silver.

Carter, If you're thinking of a 40, I know of one that will eventually be going up for sale. Probably later in the year. A friend has a really nice original unmolested garage kept low mileage 1978 that he'll eventually end up selling.
Just something to keep in mind.

I am looking for a 40, but like I said at the moment I don't have a place to put it. I'll have to put a lift into my garage (I have 17' ceilings in my garage!).

Funny thing is, I have another friend who wants to sell me a lift. I have a feeling it's going to take a few 'good deals' to make this one pass!

Of course, then I'll want a big truck to tow my toys as well. And a trailer. And...

But yes, keep me in mind. If the right deal strikes and timing is right, it might all work out.

Archie, thanks for the thoughts. As much as I didn't want to hear that, I did

You know what I mean!

This guys apparently used this as a 'beach buggy' taking it down to Amilia Island or whatnot from time to time.

Curiously, it does have a temp tag on it - but he claims $5500 invested, and that's what he wants out at a minimum. He's had multiple $5k offers apparently.

let me know. I'll drive wherever and buy beer.

Agree with Archie...in my opinion the best way to get a 40 is to fly out to the southwest

I vote we have the tech session at Richloam. Need to test out our waders and chain saws after Isaac! It's been too long since we've been out there. Just my 2 cents worth.

 

[Korasher]

I would do this, but my girlfriend is in town for the weekend, though I'll be free after lunch on Labor Day itself. We can install my snorkel...or do my front axle service I suppose though I don't have the parts.

 

[Korasher]

I like it...

 

[Korasher]

If you need some place to keep one, I might be able to oblige though will be outside uncovered but on a concrete driveway. I'll drive it around my neighborhood's circular main drag to keep the gaskets oiled and look awesome.

Also, there is an easy way to check for bondo. bring a magnet. bam. done.

 

[CruiseOrlando]

A front axel is a full day's work due to parts cleaning.

While I don't mind, you certainly would have to be there bright and early to get it done

 

[ctuna74]

I'm up for Richloam

[fattires]

i call new paint "cover all" for a reason. it just takes about 3 yrs for all that bondo to start showing us where it is.

 

[floridan surfer]

What a thread hijack!

Having said that, I'd be down for richloam.

Justin, how's the foot?

 

[Bad80]

I'm in, I can help and If there is enough time I would also like to do the rear output shaft seal on my fzj80 t-case.

 

[dannyp]

anybody available Monday for tech. My Sunday is full now. Wifey just told me her neice's welcome back from basic training party is at my house and I'd be a douche if I wasn't there even if I'd rather be wrenching. I can take off Saturday and I'm off on Monday.

 

[CruiseOrlando]

I can make it Sat, Sun or Monday.
