Title: Junkyard scores?
Post by: cuban_b on February 26, 2005, 06:15:35 PM
My wife gave me $100 to spend on the sami for valentine's day.  My plan is to hit pick n pull and dig up $100 worth of stuff.

What should I try to find.  My sami's pretty built, so I'm trying to think outside the bun. ;D  

Any cool ideas?

Get an LED shiftknob that blinks with the bass. 23% faster shifts.

That's definitely outside the box, but still crap  ;D.  
Mainly because there is no bass in my sami, or any tunes at all.

electiric fan off some front driver .. oh btw I used seats out of a 97 cavaler damn they are comfortable and easy to put in.
some yj springs if you don't have them
find a center consol that might fit ( not sure )
if there is a sami there the doors so you can cut them up and make half doors!

I'm definitely going to look for a center console, now.  That reminded me, I need an e-brake handle too.  Half doors would be nice too, this is all starting to come together.

If you get a stereo, don't forget the blinky shift knob! ;D

I'd say go to the strip club, tell her you spent money on blinker upgrades

Uhh, that would be money spent
on headlights  ;)  better be a good
upgrade or it would be a waste of $$

I would go with seats.  The Toyota MR2 seats in my Sammi are an unexpected must for Sammi upgrades.  Power steering ain't a bad choice either.  Do you have half doors?  If not you could make a set.

Completely off-topic, but that reminds me of a story my friend in the army told me about one of the guys there spending over $400 at a strip club... to give the stripper a backrub :o ;)

Spend it all on beer.  Tell her you're keeping the cans, to make a new stock Samurai bumper.

Go to the very back of the pic n pull, find you a decent bodied Yugo, ($50) Have it towed home($50) then use your Sami as a Monster Truck and crush the %^*%* out of the yugo. Money well spent 8)

the funny thing is, i'm one of the only people that know about the only Yogo in the scarp yard around here.  It might be the only one still in VT.

Is it merely a coincidence that the Suzuki Samurai and the Geo Metro convertible have almost the same wheelbase?

Think about it...
