just wanted to let people know about this one on ebay. I don't think the seller is being all that open an honest. I have a bunch of pics if people want to see more. more rust than advertised and bondo is there....

I think it is still a good rig, and I actually won the ebay auction at $11k, and that is what I think it is worth, but he wants more.....

Anyway, just want everyone on MUD to go forward knowing what I know, since clearly he is not saying it on the ebay add.

one more thing, the tires are old and weather cracked. Advertisement says new wheels and tires... well new to this rig, not new to the world.

@2fpower Thanks for the heads up. This has been on CL for a while (I'm a local to TorFab) and a few of the other guys in our group have taken a look at it. Thanks for the rundown, its tempting if the price was lower, but not at the $14k he was asking.
