Hey all,
Hope I'm posting this is the right section. Been restoring a 40 and happened to drive by a 60 on the side of the road for sale. Considering buying it with my son and seems like a good chance to get distracted for a while - as if I don't have enough projects. Anyway, interested in opinions on the value of this 60.
Turns out I know the guy selling it & he's trustworthy. But, the vehicle is new to him so he has limited knowledge. Sounds like it runs well-ish, trans seems okay, was just in to mechanics and they replaced all the safety stuff like brakes, hoses, etc. Inside seems in pretty good shape. Frame seems solid underneath BUT the bottom panels of the frame are rusted pretty bad. Really bad. We'd probably buy it to drive for a bit and eventually address the major rust areas down the road if we were to get serious about a restore.
Asking $8,500 but sounds flexible. Don't want to overspend. Any feedback?
