Boy oh boy, if I could only get that across the country cheap enough, I would make him an offer on that bad boy.

I would not let that stand in the way.

Make him an offer,who knows?

[Off Road SHO]

And what? He'll deliver it?! I wonder if all of that would fit in the back of a UHAul 3/4 ton truck? The cost of gas to drive all the way ther with my own truck would be huge.

Dang, It sold.

[11Budlite]

The high bid was $2225.00 but it didn't meet reserve so it didn't sell. I'm REALLY surprised it didn't bid higher....

[glen]

It ended early because I made him an offer for a trade that works out for both of us. It will be coming to MN by Thanksgiving.

[11Budlite]

Congrats Glen, keep us updated on how the build goes!

[Off Road SHO]

Congrats Glen. I so wanted that but couldn't come up with the scratch and solution to the logistics. You got a heck of a head start there. Now if I can only find something like that closer to home. Good luck.

Thanks guys, it'll be quite a haul to go get it, but appears to be a great headstart, Dave obviously wasn't cutting any corners. Unfortunately I'm not quite ready to start on it yet, so I may have to keep it locked in the trailer until I finish a few other projects, but this should keep me motivated. I'll have a build log on locostusa when I get started.

[WestTexasS2K]

congrats that looks like a great deal.

[Off Road SHO]

Unfortunately I'm not quite ready to start on it yet, .

 

Let me know if you need someone to take it over for you...Before you haul it home.
