*Really this is someone's project. If I were to keep any of these then I will give them a lift put on some bf goodrich all terrains or mud terrains some jerrycans and other off road equipment etc etc etc. The more I do to any of them the higher the price will be but I wanted to give someone a solid "blank slate" to run with. I have a 1988 grey one of my own with a full external cage 2" lift and some all terrains if you want to see some of what can be done to these beasts! I love these cars. My thought is that these can be driven as-is with some minor work upgraded in bits and pieces over time or go for a bigger/fuller restore. With this one I would replace the turbo then likely the belts. Maybe do the diesel injectors and glow plugs of course. Likely there will be other issues cropping up but it is a project/collectors car. I have part #'s and great suppliers for the parts and can get you connected with folks who can give you very good prices on all.
