Also the rear floor is shot too where the seats and belts go any tricks for that area  thanks again Gino

350k.... It had a good long life. Time for a new engine. You could rebuild that one, but most places will let you pull a decent one for less than $100. Takes a couple days, couple friends and a couple beers to swap but it's not hard. Rent an engine hoist for the weekend.

Sounds like a good parts rig.

That's a pair of the dozen I have I can get one. Oh BTW: 2.0L Vitara with Auto and T-case, pulled for me at the first place... $185. Can't beat that with a chicken hat! And while it was snowing! Just ask one of the guys speaking another language if they wanna make $30 easy and unbolt the sucker and stick it on the hoist. All I had to do was roll it to the truck and pay for it. Didn't even get my hands dirty.

Yea, shamefull I know. But for $30 You'd do it too.
