Tell me more. Not in the market right now, but maybe someday. Is it a typical southern vehicle with little to no rust?

Thanks Mercy. . .


I got her running last night, drove it around in 4wd w/o incident. . .still a bad main ground persists but I ran out of light to work with. . This afternoon I plan to address that, the wiring is super simple . . .

and have 3/4 tank of fuel (some is a diesel/gas blend taken from a friends accord his g/f filled with diesel. . .

the tranny problem is very minimal and will most likely be resolved through a fluid flush and reseal, not a problem unless towing.

Overall. . .its good to have a diesel again. . .
