1991 RRC SWB - New Motor REDUCED

I've got a 1991 Classic that has to go. I bought it as a project a couple years ago, but obviously its not gonna get done. The motor was rebuilt about 200 miles ago by Joey @ Outback off road. This was one of the last things they did before they closed the shop. The motor runs great and was done in Joey's typical meticulous way.

Heres the "list":
THE GOOD
-Motor - As I said, the motor has been totally rebuilt and has less than 200 miles on it since then. The motor is the 3.9 and all of the belts and hoses were replaced with new.
- Tires - The tires have 90% tread left
- Shocks - The shocks were replaced just before the motor went. They are about 3 years old, but have less than 2,000 miles on them.
- Brakes - The brakes were replaced when the shocks were. The ABS relay was just replaced and it works fine.
- Interior - No rips or tears. Needs a good cleaning. Carpet is decent.

THE NOT SO GOOD
- Fuel Pump - It will need a fuel pump fairly quickly. The vehicle cranks (after a while of trying) and runs fine. Joey has diagnosed it as the fuel pump.
- Radio - Radio is gone. Previous owner took out the aftermarket that was in it. Speakers and wiring are still there.
- Heat / AC - Don't think the AC works
- Critters - After Joeys shop closed, it sat another shop for about a year. During that time that the guy was "working" on it, some critters took up residence in it. They have been evicted and most of their mess cleaned up.
- Brake Light - One of the rear brake lamps was stolen. I have a replacement that hasn't been installed.

Located in Chattanooga, TN

Could you post a larger picture of the truck? My monitor isn't displaying the detail on the steering wheel very clearly.

Also, in your pictures, you're missing a pretty important hose between the MAF and the intake.

Nevermind: I see the hose now, it just isn't hooked up.

Sat for about 6 months before the motor work. Sat for another 6 months or so post motor. It has been in my driveway since then. No chewed wires, etc were found in the motor install. No current critters either. I just went back and looked at the album. Those motor pics were before the new motor went in. Shouldn't have posted them. I will post current ones tomorrow.

Sorry about that....

Also throwing in a replacement rear window assembly. Glass, trim, rubber, shocks the whole works. Very little rust. The one on this truck is OK now, but like all of them, it'll need to be replaced eventually.

Sounds like a good dude, he's gotta be better looking than me! Truck is rust free as it has lived most of its life south of the Mason Dixon line.
