I thought I saw an agricultural type welding outfit over in Craig the last time I was through there???

I do like the p/s ... no turbo needed here at 820' "elevation" :)

The (Isuzu powered) Perentie uses this Hitachi or one just darned near it... https://smithcoelectric.com/products/204-329-new-alternator-for-hitachi-hino-isuzu-12v-70a-with-pump-1 Yes, it has oil feed & drain lines.

My Mrs drives the '97 NAS 90 and I (usually) drive the 3-door 110 (it's been stuck in ABQ for the winter). Calling our environment "city" would be an overstatement and traffic / parking aren't the issue that the might be elsewhere. I find the 110 more comfortable and useful ... hardware...

Saw a Car&Driver paragraph that says 178" long., so between D90 / D110 size (you know, the real ones, not the "newfenders" ;) )

Right, right, EV's are just not "preferred" at my house ;)

Size looks good ... not thrilled about no frame / "skateboard" construction ... but then, I am an old person...

I can't believe he didn't know that little tube filter was in the bottom of the IP ! I clean mine every oil change, it doesn't catch much bit it's nice to think I'm keeping an eye on it. :cool:

I've had a normally aspirated 4BD1 in an '88 Perentie since 2017. I live at ~900' of "elevation" :rolleyes: so it's pretty adequate here in Iowa ... when I go west, it's a bit (okay ALOT) slow. It's paired with an LT95A (tapered roller bearing mainshaft) that's allegedly pretty reliable but...

Does a dirty old one count? ;)

...watching this closely...just broke down and put the winter tires on the ;08 GTi :)

X2 with the Perentie :)

A couple from the biker gal 😉

Nice trip last week with AlohaRover ... yes, in the F350 ... & my #1 daughter ... on her bicycle. More photos as they're processed.

Dang, if it was just "large" I'd take it in a flash ... I'll just have to keep patching up my LLBean waxed canvas then ... sigh...
