Bought one today! Unfortunately, the bottom of the window is missing the solid strip in the bottom so I can't thread the tailgate bar on. Guess I'll keep searching for missing parts. Lol. As it goes, I've found the window frames, and the rear window is at least attached at the sides so it's a little more waterproof. Sigh....
She's spotless! You could eat off the motor! Supposedly never seen winter, and only rarely driven by one owner. Never off road. I've got big plans for her!
Cool - what all do you plan on doing? Post progress with pix. Everyone likes to see before and after shots! A lot of great advice here too.
Not rotten at all, but it needs to thread onto the bar, and the guy at 4x4 parts said in should have something solid in the end of the window to thread into the bar. Mine has the loop at the bottom but the solid piece isn't inside. I picked up a second hand soft top today for parts so hopefully it'll be on the old one and I can take it out to put in mine.
I will. So far I've only bought decals and fixed a tranny leak. I'm saving for tires and rims but keep seeing other pieces I want. I'm trying to hold out! Rims and spacers for my tires would make a huge difference. I'm not looking to modify but I hate the sissy looking car tires. I want something bigger and chunkier without having to modify anything. I'm told spacers will give it a beefier look and bring the tires out wider than the flares.

I want new tires and rims, but most people tell me to leave it factory original and not modify it. I wanted bigger tires, but I may just go with spacer and have wider as opposed to bigger. And the rims I want are about $3000 so it'll take some saving. I'm try to not buy a lot of little stuff so I can save up, but it's tough.
I told the guy in the shop that I wanted it to look beefy, as big as I could go without modifying. He said I could do spacers instead, so they aren't bigger tires, but they stick out more and look bigger. I told him what rims I want, and tires. He said altogether I was looking at around $2500-$3000. Should I go get a second quote elsewhere?
