This was a 1990 Sammy. I bought it for$1000 in 1999, it went through a few stages but I couldn't find any other pictures. These were taken in 2002 or 2003, It still had the EFI 1.3, Sammy trans, dual Sammy cases with 4 to1s in the second, yota axes welded,37"boggers, rear yota leaves up front and some random coils out back, linked with modified tractor supply links. My fab skills are a little better, not by much, but better today ;D

I could swear that first pic looks like Haspin Acres...
 
This was the first jeep I built back in 1998-99. I learned how to weld on the roll cage(it sat on the fiber glass tub ONLY so weld strength didn't matter...... :****:)!!! No seat belts. Closed Knuckle Dana 27 front and dana 41 rear with two pc shafts.....welded diffs.

It had such a death wobble that you couldn't do more than 30 MPH and that was pretty scary. This was its first trip out......towed it 1.5 hours with my buddies CJ-5 on 35's that he trail rode with and then towed it back with the same trail rig after.

To say this was a learning experience is a HUGE under statement.
 
It was all pipe!! And built with homemade bender and dies.
