YES... I remember that one. The Alcan 2 inch springs, new tires, and the diamond plate dash. 
We had a forum topic about it when it was listed on Craigslist a few months back:

The springs and the tires alone indicated to me that you got a pretty good deal.

I absolutely hate that dash and aftermarket garbage gauges. I will be buying a whole nother Patrol just to get the dash, trans, top, etc...
The idea for this Patrol is to tear down completely and put all back together with new paint, interior, new fittings, bushings and whatever.
It's missing quite a bit.
Plan to document the process. Once I get donor Patrol, I will going full boar on it. Until then, just tinker and get things in working order

Hey Gerk, Welcome!
Looks like you have a solid place to start. Whats the plans?
On another note... is it true the Rockwater has closed?

Thank you
The plans are in the works
Buy another, strip both, and put 1 really nice one back together. The one in the pics is missing a bunch.
After spending a few days reading all the great posts on this site, I am very excited to get going.
Rockwater?? I don't ever get over to South Shore unless I have to.
