SOLD! So, what's Big Ugly worth? '86 M1008 CUCV K30 on 38's

happy it sold so quick!
Oh crap, I was going to message you. Yep, it sold.

Went to a guy that seems like he likes it for what it is and isn't going to beat on it or turn it into a plow truck.
 
$4500. Gave $500 and change to my buddy for all his trouble. Aside from the gas tank he had to do a last minute Hail Mary alternator fix as naturally the Gen 1 light came on last week.

I took a total loss but I bought back when prices were still high before the gas prices went up.
I don't feel too bad considering I had a stated offer of $3000 with an assurance we'd never sell it for more and I had folks tell me to part it and I'd be lucky to make half that.
 
Farewell Big Ugly. :(

Now the question is, what kind of car are you going to replace him with? "Little Ugly"? :D
 
Little not-so-ugly.

Good mpg, 4x4, 4 door SUV DD. Probably going back to my Suzuki fetish and getting a Tracker/Vitara. Looking at a '99 Chevy Tracker 4x4 4 door 4-cyl and 5 speed stick right now. Guy wants too much for it but otherwise seems like a good deal. Going to wave cash in his face and see what his happens.
 
Thanks.
Yep. I love the little things and they are quite capable offroad. I got my first after years of frustration with my '92 K1500 and was surprised how well built (if small) they are. Some good tires and they're scary fun.
