This Cruiser has been sitting for about 3 years. It’s Mustard Yellow and is stock as a box of rocks. No hacks, no mods, no surprises. I bought it about a year ago but have 3 other project vehicles demanding my attention. Need to find someone who will put it back on the road, it’s a very easy project.
Previous owner stated that it was his wife’s and that it ran and drove excellent until she got divorced from her previous husband and maintenance stopped on the vehicle. It then ran low on oil and spun a rod while she was driving it. I have a replacement engine that comes with it.
The odometer reads right around 86k miles which I believe is accurate based on pedal and other wear items. Everything is there, hard-top, doors, roll-bar, jump-seats, rear bumper guards, rear step, rear heater, etc.
The Good:
Original paint on every panel but one fender.
Almost No Rust – One quarter sized bubble on each rocker panel and some bubbles under the rear doors, that’s it.
Very complete.
Low miles and great maintenance history.
Lights and accessories all seem to work good.
Brakes feel good and were recently rebuilt.
Smooth shifting 4spd
The Bad:
The engine is seized but it comes with a replacement 1976 2f engine that turns over and has good/even compression, just needs swapped in.
Long steering rod is bent and needs straightened, easy fix for a machine shop.
The front seats and interior door panels are not stock but I have stock seats to go with it, they will need recovered.
The tires that are on it need replaced. I do have an extra set that come with it but they are nothing special.
The So So:
Fiberglass top has some cracks but I have a near perfect top that comes with it.
Front of hood has some dimples but I have another nice hood that comes with it.
Front Passenger fender has been replaced and is not perfect.
The rear step is bent.
Dash pad is cracked.
One jump seat frame needs re-welded in one spot, both need recovered.
Paint is faded.
Couple pieces of glass need put back in the hardtop, they are included.
Swap the engine and straighten the steering rod and it’s back on the road. Do the bodywork and paint it and it would be beautiful. Not overly excited about selling it but I have other priorities right now.
It will need to be towed on a car dolly or trailered home. I have a trailer w/winch and can help move it locally (Boise).
I’ll sell for $4500 firm.
