I actually almost bought that car back in January, I decided against it because I was looking for more creature comforts. It looked to be very capable... There were two major things that I didn't like about it (this was all personal preference). The front diff was welded and the front "bumper"/stinger stuck out far and it looked like the only reason it was built that was was to fit the steering box on. Like I said personal preference, and both things could be changed.
The guy thats owns it was very cool and very accomdating to show it. I did notice he has come down on his price a grand from when I looked at it. Call him up, he was a cool dude. Plus it will be cool to see it on a trail and not just sitting in his garage.
