Re-Introduction
Hello again-
I said hello last time I was here asking questions and now I have a whole new set of issues.
Like I said on my last intro, I do not own a hummer but I drive one every day at work. I work at Oakley, the sunglasses company based out of Foothill Ranch, California. I work in security and we have a hummer. The hummer belonged to the CEO of the company and after a... well long story short, the hummer was rolled and in it's distroyed state was giver to the Oakley security department. We got it "fixed" and use it for patrols on our property now. It is in need of repair. And I have been asked to make it happen.
Here is just a short list of what is needed and I need to get it done as cheap as possible.
Tires
doors
wipers and assembly, every thing other than the motor
hydrolocis for the rear hatch
paint
the front end has real bad shimmy, I'm thinking ball joints
slips out of gear when climbing steep hills
rattle from trans area
oil pressure gauge
cooling system leak from crack in overflow tank
seats are distroyed
needs weather stripping
dash lights
that's the short list...
It's a 94 wagon that after being rolled was turned into a sawz-all'ed hummer pickup convertable (I'll post pics later).
Now for the kick to the pants, my bosses pretty much want to make it look like a hummer again, and for cheap, like free.
I need to give them options but because of all the damage to the body I don't know what I am able to do. Any advice, knowledge, solutions, opinions are welcome.
Thanks!

and I want to live in Emerald Bay...for free. Free isn't going to happen. Cheap isn't going to happen. Most of the mechanical parts are easy enough to get, the interior pieces are getting hard to find and expensive. I would suggest that you call Tustin Hummer in Tustin, CA and ask for Mike Saberesse. He give give you some insight into what can be done and for how much.
