I bought the car and drove it home on november 13, 2013 with the intentions of making a vehicle to use in the winter for bad weather or very bad snow. Here are issues i face.the speedometer goes crazy once i reach speeds over 35mph. It goes well pass the 85mph mark and back down to 15mph and bounce all between.the vehicle is so out of alignment its dangerous.all the floor boards have been rusted through all the way back to the seats. The front passenger floor board is 1/2 missing, and all floor boards are extremely week.the driver side has a pop-riveted floorboard in and is very strong but the bottom has been rusted through showing the bottom of it,and the sides have rusted through wholes. When i sat in the drivers seat to replace the radio,i was forced to remove the carpet to install a new ground.part of the floorboard fell out cutting very deep into my leg.the floorboards were bearing my weight with no added force whatsoever. When i removed the rest of the carpet i was distraught to see how rusted the floor panels were and to what extent.i inspected the entire vehicle closer,and discovered the frame is in very poor shape and rusted through also.the whole exhaust from the bottom of the headers to the very back of the exhaust, has been rusted and the muffler broke off just behind the passenger seat right in front of the catalytic converter and muffler. On the way the frame in the rear near the gas tank,is rusted through and the bottom portion of the frame where the towing brackets are bolted on has broke and peeled like a banana and hangs loose separated from the main frame by at least 1/4" - 1/2". Very poor craftsmanship in the making of an offroad vehicle like this.i am a certified welder and weld professionally but this will take a month to repair and thousands of dollars.i can not do anything with the vehicle until these safety issues are addressed.
