Round two of putting our loved 80 on the market..... it took a lot longer to get the build going on her replacement but it's finally time, and the wife most importantly agrees it's time to find the 80 it's next home...
This is my 5th 80 build - we picked it up as a one owner ( minus dealer) from Atlanta and it was obviously garage kept, even now the paint is almost perfect.
It's been built up to be a reliable light offroad DD, and that's how we've used it. Duggy's Garage here in Houston has done 95% of the work on her, including a full overhaul and HG at roughly 218k as PM..... along with that a fulle OEM engine Wiring Harness and almost all hoses, lines and accessories were replaced with OEM or upgraded. Front Axles were fully redone at roughly 205k. she has a pair of new AGM batteries, new rotors/pads within last 3 months and a recent full fluid change. I'll post up all the build specs/ parts shortly - it's a long list. and I'll post more pics as well. PM me if you have anything specific you'd like a pic of.
Front seats were redone with LCH covers and new OME seat bottoms, rears ,and 3rd row are original leather and in good shape (3rd row are out currently) Carpet was taken out and professionally cleaned and Dynamat installed in doors and floor etc.
She's currently in Norfolk, VA area, as I'm there for business 2-3 weeks a month now.
I have almost all records and invoices and am happy to talk about the work done etc.... The hood scoop is a bit polarizing I realize, I planned a Sc'er with a custom top mounted intercooler... My local body shop has quoted replacing with a stock hood should that be a choice.
Asking $ 38k - might consider taking a Tundra in partial trade, as I need a DD for Norfolk.. the wife likes her new Rig too much to give it up..
Build specs:
Exterior / Suspension:
A ton More pics to follow. I travel a ton for work so pending a deal I might be able to meet up/ Deliver it.
Happy to chat about the build and anything else related to it. Shoot me a note or DM
