I've passed an 80 sitting at Wessels in Dillsburg several times and decided to stop and take a look. I thought I'd share it with any that may be interested. It's a 90 w/ 216k on it and is pretty rough. They are asking 2995 as-is. If hadn't been detailed or touched up. Passenger front fender is dented, rear gate is dented and the interior is rough but not destroyed. I crawled underneath and everything is clean... No trail damage, its stock and clean. Evidence of oil leaks etc etc. An older gentleman came out and starting talking to me. He wasn't a salesmen, just runs cars and does odds and ends. Anyway, we got to taking and he has a restored 79 FJ 40 and said he drove this 80 a few times and it felt solid. I snapped a few quick pics and left.

He said he used to do a run every year from Dauphin to Tower City on the old RR bed. That the game commission opens the gate once a year around October an you can run it from end to end. There are a few ghost towns along the way that can be checked out. Have any of you heard of or done this? Sounds like it would be a good time.
Oh and I told him to check out the Keystone Cruisers.
