For those of you who know @bdyer12 , you know his work is top quality. Throughout the build, he used all OEM parts when available. Additionally, he did not skimp on anything for the swap process. This was used a DD for Brian and has been part DD and part weekender for my family and I. I have had this on the interstate and I can tell you it has no issues. As long as I have owned it, it has never been off-road and I rarely drive it in the rain.

Here is the original build thread: 88 RESTO MOD BUILD FOR DD

Is it perfect? No. So, here are all the known issues:
  • 2-3 Chips on the Paint
  • Interior Passenger Door Handle Cracked
  • Rear Power Door Locks Work Intermittently

How much is this beautiful work of art? $45k ... $40k

Per usual, feel free to ask questions.

Thanks,

JB

Wheel Arch Covers: Obviously NOT original, but look far superior to SOR and factory.
