Default where is the market for this?

HELP.
here is the info I have on this vehicle that was easier than copying the pictures and posting here.

http://www.ultimatecruiser.com

this is an incredible vehicle if 4x4 is your thing.
professionally built and the owner willing to take a bath of TENS of THOUSANDS of dollars. I'm sure someone will please give the link to the site where I can find people who like to shove chevy high performance where it dosent belong.

Crazy how some people spend money alright but the Chevy conversion into these units is pretty slick! .
About 1980 I put an Nos Marine Chevy 302 into one of these Toyotas and the best part was the Toyota trans bolted up to the Chevy bellhousing! .
From what I remember, I swapped the front and rear driveshafts to set the engine/trans assy further forward a few inches for distrib. clearance, made a custom pilot bushing to fit the Toyota input shaft and added one of those Pinto flexible steering shafts to get around it all...think I put a Saginaw pwr. steering box in too? .
The Nos Marine 302's where available here in Peterboro' from Outboard Marine if you had the right OMC connection for a short period and I think the ticket was $500! . Managed to get a few and send them on their way in different vehicles....shoulda'-woulda'-coulda' grabbed extras or saved some but didn't!.
