Okay, why do people lie about an engine, car, or anything for sale on craigslist for that matter, why not just be honest and tell people the engine won't even rotate... AT ALL..!
That was a huge disappointment..!
But, ya know, Karma always has a way of working things out..!
By the time I got...
Thanks nickburt, I appreciate it, I'm so stoked about it today...
Here's a well documented, and completed swap into a chevy 1500 silverado I just found out in YouTube land...
Okay..! I'm so pumped today..!
I'm going to check out that Benz OM606 engine, it's still in the wrecked car, but he said it starts and runs, and has 143k miles on it..!
Here's a bit of inspiration from YouTube...
It's a Nissan Patrol, on 42 inch pit bulls, but im unsure of his gear ratios..
He...
OH, good choice on the fabric, and that's a great point with the drying time, I didn't even think about that..!
A video would be appreciated..! What's your YouTube channel, I'll have to subscribe for sure, thank you much for the help with this..!
Hi mep, I hope you had a cool day..! I didn't have much time today to get anything done, if you'll forgive me. I'll be getting that paypall account all set up here in just a few minutes, I had one a few years back, so it shouldn't be a problem whatsoever... Thanks for your patient, I do...
Hey Dan, thank you..! I appreciate it, I really think you're right about that little Mercedes diesel being strong enough, I'll have to rebuild it before I put it in, and I'm going to be doing extensive research and measuring to make sure the pieces are compatible with anything I could get...
OH, the lift struts have locks..?! TOO cool..!
Which fabric did you pick..? Is the tent top piece "lined"..?
Would you mind posting pictures of the interior, the images on the site are difficult to see, if you don't have pics that's okay if it's not convenient, I was just curious about how the...
Thank you Natchez, how is it in harder rain, I really like the idea of the side opening system, but I was curious if the wind "rolls" over the top... Do they build those to pre made sizes or do they build them vehicle specific..? I am really digging that idea...!
Also check out under the hood by the corners for any sign of "mishaps" that would have left folds or bends in the front sheet metal, and don't even be shy about sliding under it and looking at the points where the cross member meets the frame, look for cracks in the metal, and don't forget to...
This post makes me seriously rethink every choice I've ever made in my life to end up not having one of these yet...
Great Rig..!
I wish I could Huffy, I wouldn't even hesitate...

I would totally use one of those on the H3..! I first saw the rear fog lights on a Porsche and have wanted them after finding them on a Mercedes G-Wagon...!
Do you have any left..?

I'll mount the spare on a much stronger bumper support along with my "Jerry" cans, I am thinking of a bumper similar to the bumper "bleepin jeep" used on the Hope Floats build he did on YouTube...
That way, I can convince the fiancee she would be more comfortable with a roof tent because of...
This is the goal that I'm shooting for...
A completely open pass through cab area similar to the H2 SUT, it reminds me a lot of my old 4 Runner, Bronco, and K5, when the top is removed.
But with a removable hard bed cover, the "soft top" will be only on the rear wall, above the level of the "bed...
From the inside, it makes me think this rear panel area was almost a second thought add on piece from the factory..?
I first noticed that following Rod Hall's H3 desert racer build when they were posting pics of his internal rear cage...
