Just picked this up in Ontario CA.got word of this through the repu forum.got it for a good price,runs and drives good.only thing is that it has a toyota 20R motor and trans,air conditioner works and all.interior seems to have been done up at some point so its alright.gonna run it like this till the motor gives up so it might be a while since those motors don't like to give up too easy,at least it will be good on gas lol.

 

Enjoy the gutless wonder!

 

Tell me bout it,this thing barely moves lol.

 

Glad you liked it!! Thumbs up

 

Thanks xp882 for the heads up!owner of the truck was a really cool guy.

 

Good find turbo dave, looks like most everything is there. Nice to see another truck with the trim moulding.

I'm trying to get a REPU group to go to Stone Brewing on 4/27 or 4/28 if you're interested there's a post on the repu forum.\\

 

looks nice! great find

 

Forgot to mention the A/c is fully functional and working too

 

Sweet find.....now hurry up and start another build thread so we can all drool over her. Start by removing the piston engine and give her what she deserves!!!! ROTARY POWER

 

Man oh Man so jealous but yet so happy for you.

 

It's a...TEPU!

Nice looking 'REPU'. I would love to own one of these. But that may never be... Congrats on the find! Oh, and has the AC been switched to r134a or still r12?

Jose

 

I could've sworn I saw this on Portland craigslist around a year ago. I guess it made its way down the coast. Nice truck, definitely on the to-buy list someday.

 

Cool truck, but we are gonna need pics of 22year old bday girl.

haha, j/k. I've been seriously trying to deny the fact that I've been wanting a REPU for years, and that's a nice find (minus the boinger)! I don't know what I'd do if one like that popped up on my local C/L

 

NICE find bro...

 

Nice find sweet bro

 

So we are putting the engine the truck deserves
S5 engine,48 IDA,s5 turbo II transmission.

 

 

looks like my old repu 13b j just put the og steel wheels

 

lmk if you need help with tuning

 

Now the rear end took a ****.oh we'll time for a ford explorer 8.8

We are going to run the stock explorer disk brakes,which is an upgrade to the stock drum brakes lol.
The rear diff is at the machine shop getting sized up right now.will post pics when we get it back.

Diff is up and truck is running

 

I redrilled the front hubs to 5x114 myself,but I had a machine shop macine some of the center bore off because it was huge and the wheels we have wouldn't seat all the way.i dont have pics but when I can I will take pics of what I'm talking about.here it is on 16x8 ssr reverse mesh
