not a jeep, but i thought id share one of my side projects im working on at the moment.
model is a 1982 Daihatsu Scat 2.8L 5spd 4x4 diesel LWB.
im just cutting some rust out and welding a few small pieces back in place. panels are off as its all coming apart for a respray shortly when the prep work is finished.
i have a turbo and manifold of a later model Daihatsu that should marry up to this one fingers crossed but that's something ill get around to after ive sorted a few other things.
its a pretty antiquated bit of gear. all round drum brakes.. ugh.. no power steering.. but a hell of a lot of fun and very capable offroad. i put in a 3" shackle lift and when finished it will run 33"MTR.
its a long shot but id love to hear from anyone here that might be into these.
2.8L Diesel
rear end
inside cockpit
this blue one below is not my rig, this is just an example to give people an idea of what it looked like originally. my one will be 10 times better than this hopefully when finished heh
