I bought an 88 Suzuki Samurai in October.
Should be a fun off-road truck.

Probably all I will do at first is a bunch of armor stuff-gas tank, t-case, rock sliders, cage. Swap to 5.14 gears with mini spool in the rear.
Re-do the brakes, new cheap shocks (may even skip this) and get the engine working flawlessly (since getting stranded in the woods would be REALLY bad.

I figure if it's something we like I'll get more radical with it.

AFAIK Sgarnett and Judd are the only ones here that are remotely interested in something like this.

Well, I spent the first two days of my vacation on a road trip to get a new high-zoot transmission, right before Christmas (dry weather so carpe diem), so I gotta lay off the car projects for a few days (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'm waiting a while to rebuild the front suspension, since it's driveable as-is.

Next on the list is, as Lonnie sort of mentioned, is an offroad VEhicle, but it's only two (very big) wheel drive. I'm attemptiong to find a carb in the center of a 40-year-old lump of crud that I removed from the intake manifold. There's still a possibility of needing to just rebuild the whole thing, but I'm hoping that with a working carb I can continue to get by without compression (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

With a toddler in the house, it takes a very long time to work through even the short list, so I don't pay much attention to what's on the long list right now (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
