ok this is about to be a "build" thread showing just how stupid and stubborn i am
with the buggy being on the back burner for the last few months and it almost being a year since ive been wheeling and a event coming up i needed a rig. this thing popped up on FB and went and looked at it and the guy told me that the front diff was making noise but he had spare parts. also told me the frame was damaged where the rear link mount is. thing was covered in mud and parked in some grass so didnt really get a good look at it but has 31s with lots of life and a m8000 winch so figured it couldnt be that bad. it fired right up and drove on the trailer and thats when the regrets started to kick in. got it home and crawled under it and seen way more frame rot and damage then what he told me about. went and pressure washed about a years worth of mud off it and found even more rust and damage. at this point i was full regret mode but had already bought it and no time to go shopping for another rig as not even 2 weeks to get a rig ready.
specs
1992 Asuna Sunrunner aka Rustrunner with a 1.6 and 5speed and 5.12 gears
looks ok from a distance
this has pretty much been me every time i work on it. no ragrets, you know what im sayin
