Looks like a fun ride. Now just imagine a 4x4 lifted Cadillac ElDorado sweet ride.

Or a civic.

Very popular with the kids these days . . .

Sad to see the 4Runner go...

...but I just end up spending all my time in my Miata.

Yeah, I didn't like the power/weight ratio with the 4Runner. Purchased this, easier and cheaper to find lift kits for it and it gets better MPG.

Reminds me of an AMC Eagle I ran into at the trailhead for TOTW.

Thing was built!

Wish I had a picture now for this thread.

Talked to the owner, it was mostly yj after the transmission.

That belonged to Chuck Strange. He passed a few years ago. He was a stunt driver in the past, then used the RR for recovery at many of the major US desert races. Great guy who always wanted to help.

You are wrong Joe Dirt. A Rambler is not cool. Just like you. Any real man knows the only thing better than a Tee Top Camaro is one fitted on top of a 4 x 4. Now tell Brandy to get out here and get me some ice cream.

Great Scott! By my calculations that Camaro will never hit 88 miles per hour. This sucker's electrical, but I need a nuclear reaction to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need. Roads? Where we're going we wont need Roads.

It may not be shopped, but technically that's a mustang
(no I am not kidding, it a really good body kit)

I've seen the mustang body kits and this is the real deal. The body lines are too narrow in the correct spots to have additional bodywork added. If it is in fact a mustang then someone spent as much as a genuine Conti GT would have cost. Furthermore, a 2003 (first year) Continental GT can be had for under $40k, so it wouldn't be far-fetched to make one into a Mad Max-style one for relatively little $.

Amc Eagles had the same 258cu in. motor and the same T5 worthless ass manual transmission as the CJs and YJs of the same year. They're fun cars. I like the coupe SX4 model but the wagon looks good too.
