Build story
Found it in the woods on my Father-in-law’s farm.
The body isn’t completely gone, but needs plenty of patching. The engine runs, but not great and will probably need a rebuild, the transmission is rough and the transfer case has issues... so it’s going to be a bit of work for that.
I would love to repower it with a diesel of some form (4bt, Perkins 6.354, or something of the sort, 6bt would be way too big). but that comes after getting the body in a reasonable condition. Right now it’s on hold for other plans/projects.
