Yours would have had the second generation column shift with the top plate selector, easier to find a gearbox for
Yeah right. I'm not full bottle on it so that's something else I've learnt. I purchased this back in the nineties when I didn't know how rare these things were. The remaining parts from the column and the 4wd activation I removed and are long gone. Wish I had of kept them. I also was having trouble with the engine so I did an engine conversion to a ford straight 6. Cheaper option at the time. Stupid moves I know but I was young and dumb and no computers or internet to do research. The roof that was on it I don't believe was the right one. When I removed it there was a steel plate between the roof and the cab which was used as an adaption plate. It made the footprint of the cab a couple of inches longer. I'm pretty sure it's not surposed to be there. Is that correct. Nothing between the roof and the cab except for maybe a seal??
 
Here's 3FJ4513650 selling on Bring a Trailer today with a 6 liter LS and Vintage Air. Wow.

That’s quite the resto-mod, they kept a lot of original things in addition to obvious mods and additions. That rear spring pack looks like it will handle a wee bit of load, though have to wonder about unloaded ride quality on rough roads 😳. And is the rear axle moved forward from stock? I understand the necessity of the additional rear lights below the bumper because of the blockage from the swing out spare tire and cooler carrier, but they won’t last long in any moderate serious offroad driving, ok for mall runs. Lot’s of effort put in this resto-mod for sure.
