Yeah - he is either a bad salesman or something is up with the car. I got his address and asked to meet at the Mitsu dealer right next door to him (literally next to his apartment building) and he won't do it. Carfax shows it has an accident on record as well. It looks good online but I guess...

Still hunting for my first Montero... This 98 Montero just popped up on craigslist http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/cto/4698003299.html Looks great and has low mileage but the price is ridiculous. What's a realistic offer price for a monty in this condition? Here is a cheap 95 SR that needs...

I decided to pass on the San Diego listing above. Thoughts on this one? Does anything stand out as being odd or wrong? http://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/4663776028.html

Just saw this one in the San Diego area: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/cto/4660147535.html Thoughts on it? What would be a fair price?

Salvation Mountain! Looking good! Where are the other shots taken? Joshua Tree area?

Nice sketch - can't wait to see it mocked up. I'm looking into getting a Montero 2.5 and your build thread is a big inspiration!
