AFAIK, that particular shade of blue was never offered ex factory by Maruti on the Gypsy.

I am myself hunting for Gypsy/MM550 (for lack of better options, for more or less similar reasons/needs as yours) within my own limited budget; lets see what comes my way.

Best of Luck & Regards

Thank you buddy. Yes, its true. Finding a decent MPFi example at my budget is proving almost impossible, and I feel a lot of my earlier supporters have lost faith in the project.. But the search is still on, believe you me. Project Nomad will see the light of day.

it was. 4 colors are on offer infact. But choosing any color other than white or red means increased wait times.

Hi Desmosedici, any idea as to the price at which the ex-army MPFI's are being sold for? I hear that carb gypsy kings (99-02) are going for about 1-1.25 lakhs. Also in your opinion, should a person with no detailed mechanical knowledge take up this project of restoration? After reading the many many threads it seems restoring a gypsy is a majro project indeed, so just curious to know if a newbie like me should go down this road or should i keep looking for a privately used MPFI?.

Any progress on this project Nomad?

One could also pick a carb gypsy king from the market and plonk a 1.3, 1.6 or 1.8 MPFi in it by any competent mechanic.

Starter is right. I sold the vehicle in June this year.
@AltoHonco: However there is another very well maintained Carb Gypsy that is owned by a friend of mine. If interested please pm me your number and I would give you the details of the Seller.

[AltoHoncho]

Thanks Harjeev, but at the moment I dont have plans/right know-how/budget to get into this genre. Maybe if Predatorwheels is interested, as he's very much into the off-roading kinds.
@Predator (dada) - In case you've finalized a trip next month to delhi, you should check this.

No at all! You could say that I sold it for about 5-10% less the amount I was expecting. And after the deal now the new owner happens to be a good friend and I didn't know the new owner before the deal.
