I went to the local Pull an Save today to get some seat belts for a friends truck,I found a decent set,but I also walked out of there with the following.

Stock LUV auto console and shifter handle,perfect condition.

Mikado ashtray completely intact,perfect condition.

Electronic dizzy out of an 86 trooper,complete.


All of the above for $26.00 :D

It's all going into the wife's stepside,which I am finally getting around to putting back together.

So,I was at Pull and Save today looking for some rear end gears for my racecar,no luck.
Instead I came across an 80 4x4 LUV that had just been put out.
Here's what I got,all Mikado.

Door panels.
Bench seat.
Carpet.
Side mirrors.
Mint condition ashtray.
Ignition switch and door locks with key.
AC tensioner pulley(I needed for my driver)
Window crank.
Headlight switch.
4 spd shifter knob(excellent condition)

The mirrors,pulley and Shifter knob are going on my 79 driver,the rest goes in the wife's stepside.
Pictures are not very good,but as soon as I get it all cleaned up and installed I will post some before and after pics.

Oh yeah.......$60.00 for the works. :D

Sure did,out of sight,out of mind :lol:









No,I cut and grinded out all the bad areas,redid the body mount on the passenger side and welded in some galvanized steel.
Cleaned it all up.undercoated top and bottom before putting in the carpet.
Just forgot to get any in between pics.
