Hey all. Well after selling all my offroad stuff and buying an affordable comuter, I could only restrain my 4wheeling desirses for so long. I really missed it after only 8 months. I have been keeping my eyes open for a new project for a few weeks hoping a really cheap "something" would pop up. I was focused on a Trooper or Rodeo but anything woulda givin me my fix. Low and behold Today I was BS-ing with a co-worker about quads and then it went into 4wheeling. I mentioned The best 4x4 I ever owned was a Trooper. He commented that he had one that was givin to him that had a rod knock. He also said he had no time for another project. I offered him $200 for it. He said OK. It gets better, I got to thinking about our conversation on quads and it dawned on me that I had a 86 Honda that was givin to me that needed some work. I quickly asked if he wanted to trade. He said OK. And so we did. I now have a 88 Trooper LS sitting in front of my house that cost me about $15 in gas.
Like I said it has a rod knock(which I haven't heard yet cause I haven't started it). And it needs two fenders, and two doors. So it's not perfect but it was FREEEEEEE! I'll get some quick pics tomorrow when it is light and not raining. I'm going to bed now and count Troopers climbing rocks!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/sleeping.gif" alt="" />
