Default getting there 99 Amigo

I really been trying to stay on task with restoring and upgrading my 99 Amigo. Seems like I cross a few off the list and and add few more. Been on it for the last four years but really got serious last year. At least I can start driving it now. The real incentive was buying the tires and wheels last year not being able to put them on. A lot of the work has been fighting the rust issues on the frame and undercarriage, about 2/3rds of way complete with that The list of what has been done is long and at some point I will lay it all out. Here is a picture

Thnx 4 the reply n pm; thanks 4 all the info u share!! Now i will do my list; lot of way to go, but building the truck is part of the fun!!
I bought a 99 Amigo that was almost in junkyard, lots of rust under, as it was driven on beach... I decided to rescue the Amigo as is hard to find a 4x4 V6 imported (legaly lol), so i bought a 2wd 99 Amigo as a donor. Now both are in the workshop; hopefully, next month will be finished n be ready for paint.

Once agan, Thnx 4 ur Reply!
Blessings,
G.A.
