Im just Getting done with my Barbie Samurai Build up, time to put it up for sale, this is one of the most capable Samurais around. The body when i got the truck was shot, so i took the body off and replaced it with a 90% rust free body. The only rust was in the back by the tailgate and the filler neck. I cut the spots out, and sanded all the rust down, then rust proofed it then put self-etching primer down. When the body was off i sandblasted most the frame then also put self etching primer down. The interior is about as bare as it comes , 2 summit racing plastic bucket seats. The trans tunnel has damage where the old clutch blew up. Theres no heat. I didnt replace the heater core. But the gauges will work. Now down to the actual mechanics, The engine is a stock 1.3, 1.9 escort carb (definitly wakes motor up) RRO Jeep Eater 4WDSU kit with stage 2 ott steering. 5.38 gears lockrite in front , spool in rear. sj410 backing plates, rear disc brake conversion 36" iroks on trail ready beadlocks, Both the t-case mounts have been reinforced, rear has a anti-wrap bar.fold down windshield kit, door removal kit. has one of those fastback tops, a couple things truck wont have are seat belts,heat,possibly the stock roll bar im having a hell of a time getting the screws out. Truck will be 99% ready to wheel here by sunday next week. IF you figure what i have into suspension (2k)tires and bead locks(easily 1,200) but the rust free body , gears lockers all the reinforcements Im asking 4500$.

may i suggest any thing but those hard ass racing seats ed took the ones out of the tin top and put in some stockers its like ridding in a cadilac compared to the old seats or maybe im just getting old ya still got the tin top added a system replaced most the drive line fixed alot of the rust and painted it good luck on sale looking for some 15x10 rims alum, if u come across any
i know a guy who has a mint set of white wagon wheels 15x10 for a sami, ill ask what hes looking to get for em. A front locker with a sami sitting on 35's or above is a must, the tires just cause such a increase in drag when the damn thing isnt moving and just pushing mud. The only reason the front axle snapped in the first place is a buddy who pulling a friend out and had the wheel turned full lock and hammered it. But the truck has been on stock axles its whole life and only snapped one axle.
Here she is, dont worry about the bucket underneath thatf from changing all the fluids, and the hose on the ground is the vent, the the rear end just havent put it up yet.It dosent have a windsheld, but it has the fold down kit, I might get around to making a plexiglass one sometime soon here.
