To Bob. I picked it up for $4000, pretty reasonable i think. Its still running the 1.3 but its been boored out a bit n ported n polished, extractors and series 3 rockhoppers in the transfer case. Got superior drop shacles in the front...the scissor type that open up.

cars currently in getting the custom brake lines made, and having a custom hand brake cable made. by the end of the week it should be going in to be engineered after many unexpected delays, fingers crossed.
