    My 92 WWII Project Maximus

    1992 Mitsubishi Mighty Max "Maximus"
    Trim: Base
    Engine: 4G64

    Purchased this truck off of Craigslist for $600, running on two cylinders.
    The truck came with new head gasket kit, water pump, brake master cylinder, grille, passenger side marker in black, bushings, starter solenoid, new belts, thermostat, extra tail gate, new oil and fuel filter, Chilton manual, and a box of lugs.
    The body of the truck is remarkably clean, the interior is in great condition except for the driver side of the bench seat.

    I'm going with a WWII theme for the build, not looking for any performance out of her, just a nice running truck.

    This is the look I'm going for, I'm torn on the camper shell.

    Time to start tinkering with the engine.

    Removed the rear bumper and painted the steelies.
    Also removed the mud flaps, cleaned them, painted, and replaced the rusty screws.
    Pushed her out of the garage for some pictures.

    Looks like you've gotten straight into it! It looks like a pretty clean truck body wise - I think it's a good buy for $600 with all the new spares. Did you figure out why it had 2 dead cylinders?
