Is this the red one with a winch?
Looks like a little new owner TLC would go a long way on this one.
Dash and seats are an easy fix.
That carb sure looks shiny.

That's the one. I've got a message in with the seller so we can work out a deal. If it all works out I'll fly out and drive it back. Fingers are crossed. :steer:
 
I think you should pass... And PM me the contact info.:D

Just kidding. Looks like a great find, so long as the asking price is fair.

Price is reasonable -- not deal of the century good, but fair for the condition. I'm picky about wanting original spec and low rust, so I know that my candidate list is pretty short. This one is within what I had budgeted to spend and the condition I'm looking for, so if I can work it out I'll be pleased.
 
Looks like the seller and I have reached agreement on a deal. A few logistics to work out still, but if all goes well I'll be flying out in two weeks to drive it home.

I'm excited, but there's still a bunch of things to sort out before this is all finalized so I'm keeping my hopes in check. I expect it'll all work out, but won't believe it until I'm in the 40 with it pointed towards home.
 
Congrats and nice find! Enjoy the trip back with it!
