after lurking and researching and shopping for months, i finally brought one home. it's a fixer upper, but runs and drives great. needs an alternator and some interior TLC, or as i like to call it, stripping out.
i'm sure i'll have questions to follow as i start tearing into this bad boy.
cheers

I like that color, not green, not black, but not gray either.
Welcome.

 

welcome to the forum! make sure you do a full 60k fluid swapping maitenance on that beast.

 

yep. one of the first things i'll do after i get the new alternator in.

 

That is a cool looking color, looks like the PO gave the front bumper a little character.

 

I'm new on here can anyone tell me how I POST a question on the forum. Either I'm a bit dim or... coz I can't see a tab which says "Post a new question" or anything similar ?????

Can anyone help ?

Looks good..needs new suspension most likely..but dang body is great...head gaskets done?

 

when you are in the section you want to post in, look at the top left and there is a box that says "new thread".

head gasket is good. doesn't get warm, runs and drives like a champ. 4 high and lo, locked and unlocked works. looks like i have a power steering leak, no biggie.
for $1000 i don't think i could ask for better.

 

That is a great deal. I'd take them all day long like that.

Mine was dripping red fluid from the front right wheel well for weeks. I kept thinking the PS was leaking, it turned out to be a pinhole in the tranny cooler line behind the grill. I saw a fine spray from underneath with a strong light. New cooling line cured that leak.
