Why not? The original owner swapped it in. EA82T with Delta Cams, WRX Turbo and Intercooler, Megasquirt, along with a 5 Speed Transmission, XT-6 Suspension, and a few other healthy mods.

Full body resto-mod: Keep the flares and the feel of the build, but tidy everything up. Likely powdercoat all the suspension components. Add a DOM Rollcage in the bed with harness mounts through the cab, maybe a full cage is space allows... Probably an entire interior redo, find some nice OEMish seats or Recaros with full adjustment, and recover in an oem type material.

I'll be coming into ownership of this one soon. It will be getting a full rotisserie resto - new interior and hopefully I can figure out the Megasquirt on it... I hope to do the original Owner - Username Garner on here - proud... :cool:

Awesome! Yeah, Vinny has it now, but it has had some serious down time in the meantime... We might team up together to make this thing come back to life

It is true, Garner passed away last year. He was 38. I'm sorry to have to tell your community, it looks as though he was a pretty active member here Garner was a teacher/friend of mine in Boone NC at ASU. I was building my very first motorcycle when he was hanging around, giving me grief and tips :cool: http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=719041&highlight= my Bike Build Thread. Anyhow, the Suby is now in the hands of a good friend, who is slowly taking great efforts to make it come back to life. He's not a major car guy, but he is learning. I posted it up on Pirate to see if anyone knew of anything about the car. It's great to see Garner was a member here, and find some history on this really sweet machine. I helped my friend move his shop this past week, and the Brat was sitting there, and I got to see it up close for a brief bit. I knew I had to find more about it, it wasn't just a haphazardly assembled machine, but something someone really loved. I will try to keep more updates on the car for you folks, and it's resurrection.
