I'd want to use it as a truck, hauling stuff to the dump loading it with dirt or rock etc. That truck is too clean for that lol.

I'm kinda excited about it, but also not going to hold my breath. About a year ago my dad and I offered to buy the same Baja which just sits in my parents neighborhood. She said she'd think about it. On Saturday apparently my dad saw her at a neighbor's house, and she said she was really ready to sell it this time.

Update:

The Max got new Braided Stainless Steel Lines recently. Got tired of the cracked and rotting old ones. These should stand the test of time. Even had the rear line too!

Yes! Much better. I thought my 3/s ones were bad but Hans said no. I’m sure he’s seen much worse.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

All that money but still carb'd and no sport tach? Nice looking, but not my cup of tea.

Hmm. Plastic bumper, which didn't start until 92 or 93. Fender flares are missing. Bench seat. No LSD. Looks pretty beat. Might be worth grabbing the trans as a spare. Can't think of much else.

Yea, i was hoping to find an lsd for my dads "Farm 50". I do need a new drivers exhaust manifold for the SWB Monti, TC sensors, maybe a few interior trim pieces.

I really like the color matched bed cover though. Would make for good camping truck.

Aren't you over 6 feet tall? Are you gonna sleep with your feet hanging out the back? :p

What's wrong with your manifold? I can see what kind of shape my old one is in if you're interested.

6'3" and i think the bed is an even 6' long. Could sleep a little sideways or the tailgate down if needed.

Drivers manifold is cracked all the way around. I tried welding the cast iron, but one heat cycle and she popped again. Its really loud and im done with it.

I'll try to remember to look at mine this weekend. The engine is partially buried in a corner right now. You can have both of the manifolds for the cost of shipping if they're usable.
