So, i went down to this guys shop space, and what i feared was what i found. The six hunnert dollar montero diesel was decent looking, but being used as a storage bin. The conversion was done to the level of about 80percent, but stuff like fuel filter zip tied to inner fender well, push button(horn) glow plugs, stack of webbers in the front pass seat. So sad, it had a 2.3 block, head and pump in the back sitting in a puddle of oil. The interior would need to have been replaced, engine rebuilt, and just a general scraping. The upside is he had four 2.3 liter diesel engines sitting around, two runner D50's, and a bucket load of parts. He also had two other raiders, one i think im gonna buy for wheels and interior parts for a couple hundred. Gonna pick up two diesel engines for threefifty each, and i am sending my flat bed wrecker guy an hour north tomorrow to pick up my new 85 monty for the engine swap! I also am checking about importing "parts" gen 1 pajero/montys with diesels and RHD. Does anyone else have any interest in importing a forty foot container full of monty parts from Japan?
