So i'm a bit confused.
There is a chance that one of the few areas left near me may be closed this year. This will leave a sparse amount of opportunity to use the raider and i'm leaning in the direction of selling if and when that time comes (which i hope it never does)
I'm hoping you guys can give me insight on what the thing might be worth to put up for sale. I have a retarded amount of money into it, but as with anything modified, that really doesn't matter. My biggest concern is that if i'm forced to sell it, someone uses it. there's far too much time, love, and money to go to waste.
The truck is an '88 Raider, rebadged as a Montero. Body is an 8/10. Paint is a 9.5/10
Underhood (2.6L)
Brand new motor 2200 km's or 1320 miles on it. Bored .030 over, balanced, new pistons, rods, rings, bearings, all attached things to the motor (oilpump, etc) brand new. OEM Gaskets. Clearwater cylinder head with no jet valves and hydraulic lifters, MLS head gasket, ARP head studs, all new fasteners. Weber 38 carb. 3 core rad, 2 electric fans. New clutch. It will chirp the 33"s going into second.
Tranny, t case and both diffs were checked and had measurements taken to ensure they were within spec, synthetic fluids in all drivetrain parts.
Suspension is a 3" suspension lift kit from austrailia that was brand new when installed 2200 km's ago. This included HD torsion bars, lift springs, massive shocks, and greaseable shackles. It flexes quite nicely and rides well.
2" bodylift installed
There is a Cobra CB with front bumper mounted antenna and a pioneer CD player for electronics.
V6 brakes were installed
All new steering was installed with heavy duty TRE's.
new brake lines in rear of truck
Rear LSD yet to be installed
Dual Bouncy seats, V6 drivers seat
33" Goodyear MTR's with about 75% tread left mounted on 16" American Racing Nitros
Truck has a roof rack (rails) and a sunroof (tilts and slides)
Averages about 20 mpg
Basically, i'd be selling a brand new truck. Like i said, i really hope it never comes to selling it, i've considered selling it in the past when it or life pissed me off, but if i can't use it, i'm not going to keep it around for an annual trip to Moab or something.
Let me know what you guys think. Thankfully, vehicles cost way more in canada <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
