New project, '91 Explorer
I recently pulled this out of the weeds, I parked it because it has some "issues". First on the list to do was a clean up. Pressure washed and hand soaped, and scrubbed the interior.
Next up was the CLUNK from the front end, radius arm bushings needed fixed, bad!
I know the history behind this SUV.
My parents bought this from a dealership in Elgin NE in 93. It had just over 3000 miles on the od, all dealer miles. They installed a trailer package, and fixed some damage to the passenger side. (the paint is different on hood and pass fender.) My dad used it to pull a boat to the lake and trips to town for parts. My mother drove it to work for several years and then parked it when they bought a more eficient car. one of my brothers drove it for awhile and then my sister used it for a few months.
Dad offered it to me in exchange for hanging the OSB in his new garage.
I drove it for awhile till I got my 89 bronco overhauled. I am pretty sure to odometer has at least 254K on it, The engine and trans were rebuilt about 20K ago. It has alot of wear and tear but fires right up even after sleeping for 2 years in the weed patch.
PS, It is a '91 year modle with a manufacture date of 7-90.
