Caleb, remember the 40th that i went and looked at in Mobile about this time last year... almost guarantee this is the same one... for whatever reason, this rig has floated around that gulfcoast area for 2 years now...
If it is, the engine was toast, but... this shouldn't have it because they swindled a guy in bham into buying the "unknown" engine even though it was no good...
Actually i seem to remember them putting an engine in, and it not working right... most likely cause they had no clue what they were doing...
Let me dig around...
If all of you decide to pass on it, let me know. A fairly serious "you know, we ought to build an 80 with a V8 / diesel / electric motor / big, wind-up rubber band / perpetual motion engine......" discussion materialized last night, and I'm (possibly) on the lookout for a decent 80 with a bad engine. If this one is otherwise OK (and if anyone on here isn't interested in it), please let me know........ although the above idea is only "talk" right now, when something suitable arises, talk can sometimes turn to action. Thanks

Caleb, it would be great if you could give it a look see for me! Front end body parts were used to repair another rig. Motor and trans were supposed to be good but no rad now. Some body damage in the rear to include bumper, lower tailgate, and some of the rear quarter.
I've got a line on another rig locally and these two may become one...
Then I'll haul all this junk over to Eric and let the mad scientist get his thang awn!!
