Mahindra Classic 4x4

[GTO]

Thanks for the compliments, BDN. Our Jeeps have identical alloy wheels.

However, yours is an after-market CJ340 converted to a Classic, right? Still an extremely well maintained Jeep...looking good!

@GTO:

No sir!! as far as the records go, the RC says mine is a 1996 mahindra classic!! but due to a minor accident, some original parts got damaged badly!! and due to the unavailibility of the original classic accessories, my jeep has lost its originality (only looks)!! But by heart (engine) its still A CLASSIC!!

Sir... i would like to know why u felt its an aftermarket Cj340??? other than the bull bar and the footrest, wat else does my jeep lack?? pls let me know!!

i would also like to know where i can get the original footrest!! is it still available??

the bull bar has been modified by myself for my driving comfort and others safety!!
(now, i can see the edge of the bullbar from my seat!! this helps me to avoid bumping into others!! Have already damaged 2 santro's)

@ BUSA:

thank you sir!! thanks a lot for ur comments!!

Hi BDN,

The reasons I thought your Jeep is a CJ340 and not a Classis:

1. The body side claddings are off a CJ. The Classics are much slimmer.

2. Parts like the steering wheel, seats, rear-view mirrors, side step (to get in the Jeep) are all non-Classic.

3. No towing hook at the front. I dont see windscreen washers either.

4. The Classic didnt have turning lights in the slot below the headlamps. Only a wiremesh to cover the circular holes.

ok... sir... since the vehicle was used for over 6 years in an estate, in coorg, it was in a pretty bad state!! actually, i bought this vehicle from the guy who owed my dad some money!! he was not willing to pay up!! we had no other choice but to take the vehicle from him!! it was a good deal cos, wen i saw the RC, the vehicle was a 96' classic!! i was searching for a classic from a long long time!! (nearly 2 yrs) some parts he had replaced... (seats, rear view mirrors, turning lights in the slot)

The body side claddings and side step were done by me!! i didnt get the original classic parts as its no longer available here... if u do know some places wer its still available, pls let me know!! it would be a great favour!!
