Just found the rebuild kit available through NAPA for $22 bucks! I am more stoked about that!
Once I get the vehicle I will post pics so everyone can make it look like a 10lb Thanksgiving Turkey at a table of 100 Ethiopians.

Which kit did you find? The one that Ron recommended?
And now you are getting a little idea of the Patrol sickness. You can't have just one. Congrats on landing another one. We will need lots of pics.

I feel a little overwhelmed with the first one so I highly doubt I will keep the donor. I plan to donate to those in need. That doesn't mean I will stop shopping for a 2nd Patrol. I will just make sure the 2nd one is more operational than my first
The guy who is giving me the Patrol walked into work and I immediately approached him with "So, what time can I come by?" Unfortunately, his response was; "I just got word that my Father has cancer". I could only apologize. Not sure what that had to do with me seeing the vehicle, his dad lives in another state (?)
In any case, he is preoccupied and I will have to be patient.
Once I get it I will post tons of pics and take requests for parts...
