Montero Purchase

Updates as requested from today:
-All exterior lights working now
-Back swing door lock/latch fixed
-Splash Guards removed
-Interior cleaned to see if salvageable (for a hunting vehicle it be ok)
-Exterior cleaned needs to be buffed bad. Paint is in pretty bad shape but OK for hunting vehicle.
-Engine bay cleaned
-Replaced hot battery terminal lead
-Must have nocked a wire loose somehow today as now starter will only click and not engage.( will try screw driver trick next time work on it to see if its a bad solenoid)..did blow an alternator fuse today also and replaced it.

Update went back out in dark and it was my mistake. When I changed hot lead did not have everything tight enough.

New update from today:

-ABS light off now (Fuse issue)
- Brakes bleed and seem to be working ok
-All power windows working now
-Power Door locks working now
-Interior dome lights working(Can't get map light working and broke frame working on it)
-Can not get radio working probably in line fuse but I could not care less about a radio

So everything electronic but map light and radio working. So that is a win in my book.

Still to be completed: tires, fluids, belts, index torsion bars, full brake replacement, locking hubs, and bushings all around...that should get it to a point that it is trust worthy.

So aside from the radio and map light, was it mostly just replacing fuses to fix the electrical stuff?

Fuses, things not plugged in, corrosion typically stuff just takes time tracking each one down...
