Here's my latest purchase   It's a 1990 Mitsubishi L200 pickup, 2.0 petrol, a good dose of lowering and some nice wheels. I picked it up off Chris (Driveby) on Thursday, popped a set of new tyres on the wheels last night, and have been grinning driving it to and from work today  It's in amazing condition for the year, I need to sort the stereo out, and I might swap in some nicer seats, but the plans are just to enjoy it at present. I might change the Mitsubishi sticker job to an SSR wheels one, in a similar vein, but i'm not sure yet I'll pop some pics up tomorrow, it's now minus the mitsu-mech decals on the doors, the rest are there still though Mike |

Yup, 2wd and damn good fun to drive. It took me back to the halcyon days of B2000 ownership.
Needs lowering though lol ;b

It is indeed the 2wd job I've already got a lifted motor, and I built a lifted Hilux Surf too, this is back to good 'ol ground scraping, just the way I like it  |

That's bloody sick! Love it to bits!
I wonder how difficult it'd be to put a 4G63 in there

not only did you beat me to it you are also round the corner from me, just baiting me to find one now  This pick up rocks and has swayed me from getting another van to looking at pick ups again |

Really was pleased to sell it to a Mitsubishi lover and just as gutted to let her go but running Mitsu-Mech has meant I've had to make some painful descissions and be unpleasantly sensable  great to finally meet you Mike and even better to know she's gone to a loving home I wonder how difficult it'd be to put a 4G63 in there Ben it is a 4G6 already just lacking the larger numbers of horses, so there is plenty of scope for a drop in inertia improver  |

Love that. I can't see that it needs much though even the wheels look spot on.
