I got a new MatchBox Toy!!

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-02-2010, 09:39 PM

Well, at least it has Toy Axles

I had Jeff go with me down to Lexington and I bought a 88 Sami with FJ40 axles, a cage and good seats. Photos in daylight;)

Curse you discrasing jeeps like this! How nice is this machine and does it work well?

I can post a pic up for you if you need me to.

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-04-2010, 10:47 AM

I've been too ashamed of it's noseless wonder to post a pic as of yet. The passenger side hood hinge ripped out when I had to jump start it. The hinge pin froze and !@%#@%$^% ensued

The Optima that it had was DEAD. Almost got it fixed. Here are a couple of teasers.

Scott A. I'll talk to you tonight and see if you have a couple of things that this thing desperately needs.

94Dodge Truggy · 01-04-2010, 11:03 AM

I see a little bit of jeep on it so it must be good! Is it a big block?

1300 wasn't it?

94Dodge Truggy · 01-04-2010, 12:03 PM

1300 it is! Gonna bring it to the meetin?

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-04-2010, 12:16 PM

I'll give you a key and a jacket

The top is still too stiff to install

In all reality, it's not licensed and probably won't be

humpy · 01-11-2010, 06:53 PM

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-11-2010, 08:08 PM

Yup,

I asked Tinbeater on pirate, but I guess he didn't see.
So I'll ask you if there was anything I should have known before I paid for it

I didn't see it and dont know of anything.

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-11-2010, 10:46 PM

No problem, I was just hoping that it wasn't a rig that rolled and cut somebody's leg off or something

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-12-2010, 12:01 AM

Still haven't taken it out of the garage 'cause I've been sick, busy or sick of bein busy.

Here is a couple of axle shots

humpy · 01-12-2010, 08:54 AM

i actually have wheeled with cliff quite a few time and this ride did really well for what it is...the only thing i would change is the tires...im not a street tire fan

I've got that in the bag

I already own a set of 36" TSL SX. Now I gotta break out the cutoff wheels to enhance fit

And then move onto.......a bunch of other stuff

chris_dishmon · 01-13-2010, 10:16 PM

sweet rig. lemme know if you wanna sell that front axle cheap cause you wanna swap them for some dana 60's. could you imagine a samuri on full width axles.

Hope Springs Hauler · 01-31-2010, 07:46 PM

Updates. Just a little progress at a time.

Even after taking the picture, I did more. I took off the fender flares and began to trim for clearance.

hotrod · 01-31-2010, 11:24 PM
