Hello all,
In the current day of binge watching I wanted to wait to create this thread until I had more updates to share, but I've realize there is no better place for dumb questions than your own build thread...... and boy do I have some dumb questions.
A little back story. My name is Josh, and I spent my formidable days in South Florida. Then back in '13 the wife and I moved to Oklahoma for work what started as a two year commitment has turned into 6years+. I was always a low and fast kind of guy, but I believe it was a product of my environment, when you have roads as flat, wide and straight as you do in the Palm beach area it only makes you want to do one thing.
Things slowed down once we moved to Tulsa, the roads here are riddled with potholes, we live in the midtown area and the speed limit doesn't really go above 40. So what better than a big slow rig? I've had a dodge, couple infinitis, mutiple bmws but this is my 3rd SUV and first Diesel, its only been 6months but im in love. Easily climbed the list as one of my favorite vehicles ever owned.
Build wise we're going to baseline the vehicle, resto-mod in a sense, it'll do light overlanding but I doubt it will ever see any serious rocks.
Its a late 92 Emerald Green JDM build so its a hodgepodge of 93 and 92 specs, got it with 193k kilometers so about 119k miles back in September.
Here she is next to her current stall mate(my first new car ever 18 Q50 Red sport(which will prob be gone soon))
