I've talked to Eddys in the past about that Cruiser. It has sat on the back lot for years and it sees occasional snow plow duty. Has a lot of covered up rust issues particularly on the tub. I have looked it over pretty close, but I don't know what kind of mechanical shape it is in. The interior is trashed and has cheap house carpeting in it which I suspect is covering up rusted floorboards. IIRC, Eddys told me it is a 73 with some other model year mechanical parts on it. It seems to me that the Service Manager told me that they had to put some 74 parts they had on it to keep it running. 2-3 years ago, the Service Manager indicated an interest to me in selling for around three thousand. I thought about it, but decided the costs after the initial purchase would get me in divorce court, 1 cruiser in the family is all I am allowed.
They have never been to keen on selling it, but at the time the Service Manager told me the general manager wasn't too happy with some of the money they were sinking into a vehicle that only got used once every few years. They haven't said anything about selling it since and I know several people in managment at Eddys and see them on a fairly regular basis, and they haven't said anything to me about selling it since that one time 2-3 years ago.
If you can buy it great, I don't think it is beyond redemption, but as long as it has sat, I would think there will be seal replacement issues and a lot of other problems.
Good luck, it does need to go to a good home.
