I was driving old US 17 alternate between Georgetown and Monck's Corner South Carolina and stopped at a junk yard. Bring your snake boots if your going to go the old boy don't cut his grass often and its prime for Cotton Mouth's and Rattlesnakes but he does have some good stuff out there for any interested parties.

1st ones a short wheel base 2 door Montero, high altitude package. Meaning lockers from factory, very rare. May be some useable parts for some of you guys.

don't say that too loud Danny Lee will molest you. No I love those Raider/Montero's very tough trucks and oddly enough has a lot of the same build quality's as a Disco 1. Very capable especially at Uwharrie.

the body is straight and the interior is all there as well, not that there is much to begin with. I'm gonna guess the motor seized up and here she ended up.

I'm trying to trade my 80 yota 4x4 for a short wheel base montero/ raider. I need something smaller and yet as capable for things that our D1's aren't so good at ie 4 wheeler size trails. I have to get my buddy to fix my what was perfect paint now. I had to check a hog trap and forgot that trail hadn't been used in a few weeks. Spring had sprung and once I was in there I was in there. Picture a half a mile of that nail on chalkboard sound at 5 miles an hour at most.

I'm gonna call in the am to find out the scoop on the RR and a price for you guys. I can store it at the lodge if one of you guys for sure wants it . Cosmic has first dibs though. I'll spray it with a little something something we use to run the snakes out though.
