Well my names Jason, I live in rural Iowa outside of Waterloo in a small town called Finchford, belive me I mean small, all there is in finchford is a church, repair shop and about 20 houses. I live about a mile out of finchford on a gravel road so I spend a lot of time at carwashes.

For hobbys I'm usually playing some racing game or outside workin w my car or tearing up the trails out behind my house on my quad, do a lot of muddin with it hence the name oldschoolmudder, I came up with that when I had my old atv, a 89 warrior, that thing sucked in mud an I always ended up pusing it an that got old.

Really into cars, even though I'm not a master mechanic I try to do the mods myself, I'm currently enrolled in a tech school in waterloo called Hawkeye Community College for Collision Repair and Refinishing, its a two year program an I just started this year (08) I'm basically living at home for now since I haven't been able to get a job that I can work w class so I've been trying to get a good job that I can still go to class full time and have a lil mod money as well.

Nicknamed the truck squishey, after I read in a magazine I get about how they were going to build a high mileage beater yota. Well the nissan has about 80,000 miles on it, but due to the fact that it was a guys fishing truck it has substancial rust damage, I'm going to go with replacement rockers and a rust free box on this one, the floor is in great shape and there is a little bit of bubbling on the passenger front fender, and the bed floor is shot, so I'm going to try and find a rust free box.

Nothing yet haha, but I'm going to order some parts after I get the rust cut out and replaced.

First thing I am going to build is a Custom rear bumper with built in 2" receivor, D ring shackles and cut outs for offroad lights and cut out and patch up the rust on the frame and body.

After I get that done I'm going to order some Interco Swamper TSL SX tires in 31-10.50x15 and mount them on a set of and some wheel spacers from www.4x4parts.com

Next thing up is a ARB Bull bar front bumper and a 9,000 lb winch.

Then if all goes well I'd like to get a ARB snorkel and some headers for the 2.4, possibly a flowmaster Super 44 offroad muffler.

Hopefully I can find a used Dana 44 front axle out of a jeep TJ or if I can't find anything else then possibly a Dana 44 out of a full size chevy, and then cut out the IFS and weld up some brackets for a 4 link and purchase some lift coils for a TJ and drop those in. Then rework the front steering, add some steering stabalizers and a oil pan skid plate.
