Hi all, I picked up a stripped down former MI Sheriff's Police '02 Expo for next to nothing. 131k runs strong, needs brakes asap (every f'n nut n bolt is rusted in place lol) and eventually an exhaust manifold. It has the towing package, police spotlights, full rubber floor, but no center consoles or 3rd row seat. At least the A/C works!

Plan is to get it safe and reliable first, and maybe keep the gov't look- kids want a zombie response vehicle or a SHTF truck. No rush at all. The sills are rusting out so it'll never be a beauty queen. That's the last of my worries.

South Side, and thx for the welcome. The truck is clean, except for the rusting sills and door bottoms. It's basically a big empty box. I've been reading the Gen I forum for a couple months- Gotts Mod, brown wire, etc. Great stuff.
