Car Description:
Was found for sale in a field with no engine and no ecu.

Originally in 2018 I built a custom 6" lift, and a custom hand made bumper and spare tire holder. Converted it manual transmission.

In 2022 I Swapped the complete vehicle wiring harness and an EZ30R engine from an 05 Outback LLBean into it.

Fast forward to December of 2024, The car got rear ended by a drunk driver. Instead of cutting my losses, I decided to take it as an opportunity to build an Exocar. I have always dreamed of building one someday, just didnt realize that day would be sooner rather than later. So in just 3 months, i had the body stripped, i hand built the roll cage, and removed about 40Lbs of un-needed wiring.

Other fun facts:
It has an electric power steering pump from a Volvo S40
A fuse box from a Buick Lucerne.
Door Mirrors from a Nissan 350Z
And headlights from a jeep wrangler.
