Anyone near McMinnville, OR??

its by Salem..... i could go check it for you if someone that lives there wont..
its just a hour away .. i could use a drive

That would be great, but that is kinda far. I mean, if you don't care and have nothing to do, that would be awesome. The Trooper has been there a while and I don't think it will be going anywhere fast, so no hurry.

Thanks!!!!!

Obviously, if you do decide to go, let me know when so I can make sure its there and stuff. Plus I have a list of things I will want to know.

Thanks again to anyone who can help!

I can take a look it tomorrow if you want.

Looking at the pictures it looks like someone cut out a section of the rear carpet. I'm not sure is that the original interior, or did some one have it re-done.

Oh sweet! Yeah man! If you can pop in there and maybe take it for a little drive and see how it runs, that would be great. Here is a little list I would like to know about it:

1) Does it run good?
2) How is the trans? Shifting ok?
3) Any major rust on the body?
4) Looking underneath, any major rust on the frame?
5) Again, underneath, anything look like it's leaking?
6) Any funny odors in the car?
7) Does the 4x4 engage and work?
8) Are there any maintenance records at all?
9) Check the oil and make sure it is full and not milky
10) Anything else I should know about

Man, it would be excellent if you have the time to check it out and take her on a test drive. Like I said, I am looking to move on a Trooper just like this one pretty soon. As long as the interior doesn't stink like an ashtray or something worse, I don't care about the missing carpet. I will be ripping all that out and replacing with bed liner anyhow.

THANKS!

It is midnight blue, dude.

You better keep searching.

LOL. I knew someone was going to make a comment on that. Don't worry, the way it looks now is not how it will look when I am done with it. That said, there is a good chance it won't be TOTALLY black. I have some ideas...that I must bring to reality!

PS - I don't think I have ever seen a black 1st gen Trooper....

Hey Bart- Here's a black one, now you can have both a black and a blue and your legend is preserved!http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=250401815258
