for sure...always looking for a good find...the one I posted above might be good for a project, but the price is then a bit high. Its one of those that looks pretty good, and would be fine for a driver/wheeler etc if you kept it as is and just made sure it was mechanically sound, but even though its not a rust bucket, it has just enough rust issues that all the pieces would have to come apart at the seems to truly prep it for paint and make it nice...actually that is very similar to my cj...its a good driver, but not a good restoration candidate (and thus the bent bumper on chinamans last week). It would take the same amount of work to quasi-restore that one as it would a complete rust bucket, but this one requires a lot more to purchase. Haven't decided if I want to make an offer - certainly not $4400....feels more like $2500 (given that it has a v8 and disc brake kit and is running), but it would be better to just drive it and I think I want one to fix up as a nice cruiser....clean restoration and paint on the outside, and maybe a few modern upgrades underneath....This one has potential at the right price, just not sure what that price is...and another hard part for me, I truly need a better location to store it than my driveway....
