1985 1.3lt NT LWB Sierra Soft top
This is a rolling shell minus all running..........
What is does have done to it already.........
It has been bobbed at the back by 8in and fully metal welded
60lt Vitara EFI fuel tank mounted at the back of the zook. It has been mounted level with the chasis rail and floor has been raised to cover tank
60mm chasis extension has been added to the front to allow for RUF conversion. Steering box mount is 50mm forward to ensure that steering arms do not foul as per standard steering box location and RUF conversion. Car is fitted with a Jimny Power steering conversion, box lines and pump all done 35k
body has been modified to clear 34in tyres. All metal finish with no pop rivets in site....Chassis has been fully rebuilt cleaned and painted. Under body has been cleaned and sealed. Transmition tunnel has been widened to allow for Jimny m13a and auto combination. Currently has auto mounting in tunel but standard 5sp mount is included. Comes with full LWB soft top, transfer case, new OME N76 shocks, seats front and back wide track front diff complete.
$2250
this is what it looked like prior to being stripped down to rolling shell. Gives you a good view of the bobbed back and flat tank area

Mate good luck with your sale, as far as I am concerned this is the perfect base for a serious daily drive weekend weapon, if I was building one this is exactly what I would have done, pity you have to stop at this stage.

It was orginally an m13a and 4sp auto from a 2002 jimny. Vitara 5.12 airlocked wide track diffs etc etc these are all gone as are the tyres....
It is now only the rolling body on standard nt diffs no centres or engine or auto etc.
You will need running gear and suspension and tyres. Car is as per pics
You get already modded body that just needs painting or touch up area's that have been modded.
plus you also get seats, transfer, jimny power steering complete, lwb vitara efi tank, new pair n76 ome shocks, rust free body, soft top, 2in body lift
modded front guard
modded firewall

I picked up some other stuff off James today and had a little look over this thing.
Everything was done pretty damn well and is very well thought out.
Free Bump!!

Front shock towers are there........Was fitted with exa rear's as they are way longer than stock and allow heaps of flex while controlling the car....

Not for that price it won't
$2250 is a bargain!! All the prep thats gone into this thing is very time consuming, and looks to have been done well.
Hope it sells to a person who is just as fastidious.

You guys are right in the timing of the mods.........Chassis work and body work too ages and that was what probably killed it off for me.......
I ended up buying Grimbo's ute and drove that for a couple months fixing almost everything and then ended up getting rid of that as well as the zooks were too small with two young boys who wanted to go 4wding driving with me.....
Due to the amount of work I put into it I have kept the body because I just couldn't bring myself to sell it. Now have three boys and a wife who loves 4wding and the GQ is calling for an intercooler and my parents want the corner of their garage back..........
Commitment is also questioned.....I drove to Mildura and back on black Saturday and towed home my Valiant..........it got so hot in the mav that the GPS fell off the window and shut down............had to run heater at full ball to keep the temp down............but did it and I have to say it was worth it....

Hey Guys,
yeah I won't say who at this time but it was a board member who bought it. They went and had a look at it today and are happy to give it a new home.......
Will be sad to see it go but at least i know it is going to a good zook house....
