Still waiting for updates on my Taco project truck from the States. :: taps fingers ::
However, here in Uganda it was a gorgeous Friday... took the FJC out on Kitgum Road, which is an old road linking the Senior Quarters (now called Ariaga) area of Gulu, Uganda (so named because British officers used to be housed there) with the outpost town of Kitgum, which has grown into something of a city (well, not a CITY, but you know what I mean...) in the past two decades. Nice drive, uneventful, only a few puddles left from last night's rain, though the road was quite soft.

Thanks,
It's a 1981.
I have no intention of bobbing it.
The body is almost rust free.
Just planning on a winch, rock guards, re-gear, lockers and fixing what's broken or in need of replacement.
This is my fourth early 80's, including one Trekker.
I'll post them today.
I only plan on using for trails and plan to have it ready by next year's Chile Challenge.

I bought this truck for $1200 in 1991 with a destroyed 4 speed. I replaced it with a five speed and drove it all over NM/WTX for a few years.
I bought this Trekker in California for around $3500 in 1995 and used it as a daily driver for a few years.
This was bought around 2002 for $2500 with less than 90K on the clock. I don't think it was ever off road, and I regret selling it. I wasn't interested in building it up at the time, but now I have the resources, hence the renewed interest in my "newest" 1981 Toy.
