The story behind the Super Trooper as best as I can tell.

The original owner was in this general area as I remember seeing it in the local area when the thing was first built up in what, 92 or so?

Eventually Sebastian's buddy bought the thing, and has been the owner for the last few years. Every now and then the thing would show up in the parking lot at my condo complex. It looked a bit worse for wear each time. One day the trooper was towed and impounded for lack of current registration. At this time Sebastian made a deal to take over ownership for the price of the impound fees.

So now Sebastian has the vehicle, but has no way to part it out since he lives in a hostile condo association and I happen to know that Dallas is looking for some of these parts for a buggy. So I put these two together and they worked out a deal that works well for both.

Glad to see it getting pulled apart already. The less I have to do. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Dallas has some good ideas on how we are going to make his buggy nicer then mine. Easier to build too. We have been throwing some ideas back and forth and I am looking forward to starting on it. The suspension geometry will be pretty much the same, but we will have a better design for the link mounts on the frame, etc. You know all of those wonderful things you learn as you go. Oh yeah, and some adjustability on the antisquat.

Should be interesting to see how it all goes together.

But first we need to gets Steve's Bronco up and running. You guys have a good time in the shop, I'll be visiting with family that is in town.

ps. - You know Dallas, this could be a pretty cheap project since you can write off your time. Hmm, cost maybe 1/4 or 1/3 of what the Amigo swap cost you. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
