This was my fathers truck who passed away 3 years ago and it’s been sitting in the garage ever since. He swapped parts and ECU from a 2.3 Turbo coupe. The truck ran before parked but used oil.

The body is from New Mexico and is solid. 5spd. Stock rear end. Putting it on here to hopefully find someone who will appreciate it.

Located in Northeast Ohio, just want it gone.

I know if I had 500 to spare right now I would, my first thought was just to use the engine in my daily driver I have now, but after looking at the pictures, thats a keeper and worthy of being put up in the garage during the salty winter months.

Back the F off 2.9 owner. You're not worthy of this truck.


That 2.3T would be a cute little DD compared to what that 2.9 hes building is capable of...

Fair enough! Don't want to see this one go to some schmuck. Get it, Bird!

Let me know if you need a hand in the logistics, I'll do whatever I can. Let's get this one to a good home!

I've got a couple job interviews early this week, but I'm going to try to make this happen. If it does, I'll be at the offroad event on Sept 6th or 7th for a visit.

Got some issues with my 2001 having some vibration (more like death wobble) from tires I think. I have to swap over to a spare set and see what happens. It's my tow rig. lol

You get it Bird... I'm coming to see you and see it what it all about.

I seriously have a plane ticket to Florida to get my mother for tomorrow morning... If it wasn't for that I would be in Ohio getting that truck yesterday.
