Someone used deflated football and shoved in there and slowly inflated it . Heat and dent puller work too

I've got a puller, torches and a good set of those PDR rods.

But heck with that... I'm going the football route... lol.

Got the bolts along the top of the fenders removed... and a start on the fender to apron/inner fender bolts... everything is moving, but more lube and let them set is the way. But, did get the headlights and surrounds pulled and the grill. Slowly, but surely. After I get along a little further, I'll be posting up some pics.

Good few hours in the shop.

@Old Nick You’re probably already aware of it but @AirheadNut put an ALH in his Prado

Well, here goes again! After selling my G-Wagon, I wanted something that was better suited to a daily driver, and something that got better than 15mpg on the highway...

So, I bought another Prado:

This one is a 1991 SX5 with an R150f 5-speed manual. It is absolutely bone stock, with a whopping 107k km on the clock. Factory electric winch (as far as I could tell it had never been used till I got it), and an original cylinder head.

So far I have put about 2000km on it in my week and a half of ownership, and have averaged about 21mpg (11.2 l/100km). It doesn't seem to...

Another good place to look for an ALH car is copart also.

Hey there, young man. Good to hear from you. I've already been reading through AirheadNuts thread... Found him via another TDI thread, and he was super helpful.

Will definitely check out copart... found a couple low(er) mileage examples thus far, but haven't pulled the trigger yet. Waiting on the new wiring harness... and cluttering up the barn with parts from Zeke... lol.

Here's to Saturday!

I just got word of a complete, wrecked 2003 Jetta with 150k miles on it, runs and moves under its own power, asking $1k. Unfortunately Western MT is probably a bit far for that!
