I'm on spring break right now so I'm at home on my parents computer and only have access to pictures that I've posted before. But I've posted quite a few on pirate so I should be a able to still give you a good story about my cruiser. I couldn't find any good rubicon pictures though
This is driving away from the house of the guy I bought the cruiser from back in january of 05. He was Ron "the a****** from Del Paso". He was a clamper who took this thing through the rubicon many times but had to sell it because he had emphysema and couldn't go up to the altitude anymore. It was a great deal, 350, th350 tranny, arbs front and rear. Little did I know....
The engine was on its last leg. New engine from the chevy dealer for $1500 and I'm rolling again. Then I had overheating troubles. Huge aluminum radiator and an auxilary electric fan on the front of the radiator and I'm good to go again. Then after a snow wheeling trip, my transmission won't hold the vehicle when in park, so time for a new one of those too. Then the carburetor died on me so I got a new-to-me q-jet from the junkyard and it worked good for a while then it finally stopped working so I had it rebuilt and installed propane dual-fuel as backup and for the off-camber stuff.
I had a lot of fun wheeling it sprung under. I went to the rubicon numerous times over the last two summers and up to fordyce to the first water crossing a few times as well. Also at least 10 trips up to high lakes for snow wheeling. I don't have any pictures on the internet of these trips so you'll just have to take my word for it.
just a second...new post time
