I got this one back in the spring of 2019.
I saw it for sale and bought it mostly because the color combo reminded me of my dads old GQ.
It was basically as stock as it gets here in Iceland. Mild lift with some spring blocks, a dropbox for the front radius arms and some fender flares
I knew there would be some rust. It is inevitable here in the north. I started to make room for 38" tyres almost as soon as I got it. Turns out the rust was a bit worse than I thought.
The wheel well was mostly rotten as was the bottom corner of the rear door. Inner and outer sills were also all but dust. But I'm known to be stubborn, when I set my mind to something I finish it even if it is almost not worth it. So I cleaned out the wheel well and rebuilt it. Patched the door and put the new flares on.
