    I have my eyes on a new toy but my wife has made it very clear that I can only have one ORV at a time. In order to aquire any others I have to sell this one first. So be it

    1988 GL station wagon; started life as a 2WD 5MT but I converted it to 4WD 5MT Dual Range. Equipped with the original BYB 3" lift kit (pitch rod properly lengthend and installed; same with radiator hoses) EA82 SPFI was rebuilt a few years ago; the whole long block was done by a proffesional engine shop in the twincities (new left head, block magnaflux tested, cylinders deglazed and honed, other head pressure tested, valve job, crank turned, 100% new gaskets and seals). I installed it, bolted on all the accessories, and got it running.

    New parts: Water pump this last winter. Front wheel bearings and ball joints just this last month. Fuel pump last year. Rear brake lines over a year ago. 235/75 R15 Liberator AT tires with 90 % tread still! Straight Custom bumpers front and rear with legal tow points.

    Swaped upgrades: Rear disc brakes. 15" steel Pug rims. 1991 Loyale knuckles. Front right axle from '91 Loyale. EA81 Y pipe in great shape back to a new Thrush glasspack. Radiator swapped in; great shape with no rust. PCV system fixed so it doesnt suck oil on hard turns. Thule roof rack (I'm keeping the high lift jack though )

    Spare Parts: Soooooo many spare parts. Tons of engine spare parts; MAF, TPS, IAC, Alternator, TB+injector, intake manifold assembly, timing belts, accessory belt, fusible links, Y-pipe, and more. Lots of drivetrain spare parts; complete rear diff assembly, front axles, rear axles, control arms, radius rods, struts, and more. Big box of all Subaru hardware; nuts, bolts, washers, etc.

    Bad Aspects: The rust She's still solid where it counts but shes rough around the edges. I feel perfectly safe driving it and have no doubts it is structuraly sound. It's been repainted (not a rattle bomb job! I used a good gun and quality paint) so it looks good. There's a few minor dents and scratches from offroading; such is life on the trails. My title says it all; chix dig body damage

    Not here to swindle anyone, hide anything, or lie about it; I have the title, registration is current, and it's street legal. This isnt a trailer queen; she gets me to the trails (2 - 6 hours one way usually!), on the trails, and gets me home. Not a lawn ornament either; I drive it to work often and all around the cities. It is what it is and there are plenty of pics that tell no lies. If you have any questions I will answer them. If you want to come see it and test drive it shoot me a PM.

    $950 OR BEST OFFER, So make an offer Local sale would be easiest but not exclusive; if you wanna work out an out of state deal thats fine.

    If the jeep is his daily driver; he might want a strictly offroad vehicle.

    As to the speculations on what the 'new Toy' is. Lets just say; you wont be seeing me in a Subaru with 36" tires. :p

    I've seen this car up close and it's the real deal, guys. Set it in 4WD and it's a snow vehicle.

    um...yea, I TOOK that first pic....yea, I've seen it in action....and it pwns you!!


    that's the worst hint ever, does that mean it's not going to be a subaru? or it's not going to have 36" tires???

    my buddy just got a speeding ticket, so he's putting some more $$ in the heep, and keeping it.

    Sold for $900.

    He came down tonight and test drove it. SIgned over the title, filled it FULL of spare parts, and he was off.

    Kinda sad seeing it go but I got a line on an '84 Toyota pickup with solid axles front/rear, 6" lift, and 36" tires.
