It’s time to sell the Montero. Shes got 195k miles, runs and drives great, I just have too many cars. I’m looking for $3,500.00.
\nI’ve put a lot of work and parts into the thing. I don’t want to sell it, but it doesn’t cover what I’m wanting at the moment. The CR-Z gets around in the snow pretty well, and I just bought a 05 Ford E350 6.0L Powerstroke Diesel van for towing duty and threw some General Grabber AT\u00b2 tires on it, so it scoots around in the snow and ice decently. It doesn’t compare to the Montero for winter driveability, but what does.<\/p>\n
Here’s what I’ve done to it.
\nRebuilt cylinder heads, fresh valve job
\nTiming belt w\/tensioner and pulleys, water pump, head gaskets, head bolts, revised crank bolt
\nreplaced coolant hoses, connected rear heater, new OEM thermostat
\nElectric 2 speed fan from a Taurus with 180\u00b0 and 220\u00b0 switches
\nDrilled and slotted rotors, ceramic pads, new\u00a0General Grabber AT\u00b2 Tires on stock rims
\nreplaced driver side axle spindle, replaced fuel tank,\u00a0new front shocks
\nwinch plate, 9k lbs winch, light\u00a0bar wired to fog\u00a0light switch, New Marine Interstate Battery, installed hold down bracket
\nbluetooth stereo, 1500w amp, 1.7f Cap, 2x 15″ Rockford Fosgate DVC subs, remote start, roof rack
\n7 pin trailer connector, Trailer brake
\neliminated cats, installed rear oxygen sensor simulator, 2.5″ exhaust to Hooker Aerochamber muffler, 3″ exhaust over the axle to chrome tip
\nreplaced a hand full of worn or missing interior pieces
\nChanged the oil every 3k miles with Rotella 10w30. I bought it with 188k on it.
\nIt was supposed to be a winter beater, but I wound up enjoying it for a summer and\u00a0decided to start upgrading\/repairing\u00a0stuff.<\/p>\n
