YEAH, IT'S GOT A HEMI; And you can get one, too.(News)
Byline: NATALIE NEFF
When Dave Harriton moved out of his parents' Pennsylvania home and headed for college on the other side of the country, he got a gift: his father's old Jeep Wrangler, which would not only act as his buckboard for the cross-country journey, but provide him with wheels once he got there.
But Harriton hated California, so after enduring the state for four years he flung the mortarboard from his head, packed up the Wrangler and moved to Missoula, Montana.
By then, however, his Wrangler hardly resembled the present from his father. "I went to Ace Hardware and bought a $40 socket set,'' says Harriton. "It took me about a year, but it came out beautiful.''
That was in 1993, and "it'' was giving his Wrangler a lift job-Harriton had never even changed a car's oil prior to the project.
"But it rode rough, so I decided to make it a long-wheelbase. I found a guy willing to do [the welding] for $500.
"Funny thing is when I drove it back to Pennsylvania from California, my parents didn't even notice,'' says Harriton. "They're not really car people.''
