Well after wanting a little Jimny for a while I've found one that was in the condition & price range that I wanted!
I've been after one that runs/drives & is in a OK condition but could do with a bit of TLC! I plan to have it back on the road for next winter & will then just tax & insure it for 6 months while the Shetland weathers rubbish!
First few things to do once I've picked it up are getting it ready for an MOT (it failed on a rotten boot floor) & had a few advisory's (worn drop links, oil leak, bushes, etc) & I'll get the cambelt done as i'm unsure when it was last done as there's no service history. It does however come with new drop links, poly bushes, 5 of the 3 spoke alloys with OK tyres & 5 of the OZ alloys with pretty good tyres that are on it in the picture. Does anyone know where I can I get replacement centre caps for the OZ wheels??
Then I think I'll look at mods like a high lift kit, bigger wheels/tyres, snorkel etc but will be on the look out for some bits while I'm doing the other MOT work!
I'll put up some better pictures once I've got it home :woohoo:
Cheers
