Low Dollar 4x4 Project!

Just bought my '93 4x4 for $1000! I'm happy as a lark.

My plans are to continue fixing the 100 little things that are wrong with it (as inexpensivly as possible) It needs alot of love. I've already put a starter on it and exhaust flange gaskets/nuts/lockwashers. I also fixed the pass. side door. (it wouldnt open from the outside) Fixed the antenna, cleaned the interior, changed fluids, etc. Have to replace the tail lenses, the passenger side mirror, and the meter hood on the dash. Also need the driver's side turn signal lens.

The thing stinks really bad, but the CAT was removed, and the tail pipe is nonexistant. I need a new muffler system but dont want to spend a whole lot.

Looks good. You're close enough to my area to come down for a wheelin' trip. Get that thing in shape and We'll get a run together.
