That thing is saweet!

Thanks man. Does anyone have an idea how much a GOOD paint job will cost. There is some VERY minor rust popping up here and there...DAMN salt air. I want the body taken down to bare metal and any fiberglass or bondo replaced with metal. I know I can't get an exact price but I would like to know a ballpark figure amount. THANKS
 
my mrs came across this 45 troopie today. she asked the guy if he knew what model it was and he didnt know! (obviously not a ih8mud regular :) ) she told him i would be pretty happy to see one in such good nick for its age. i have to agree ;)

Paint job

A good paint job , interior and exterior,including bodywork is around 4 or 5 thousand bucks these days. I had quite a few holes that needed filling in and paid 5 grand 5 yrs ago.

BJ44V, Where is that? Orawon Beach?

It's a beach just past Tori Station. After the first fork in the road past Tori. Then back behind some kind of Japanese sight seeing place.

I alternate between this and the LX450.

That is one NICE 40. I like the lift and stance. What size and make of lift do you have?
