I would hazard to say there was well in excess of $2000 worth of parts on that rig if you want to take the time to part it out. Unfortunately with today’s gas prices you can’t afford to ship that thing very far.

So you bought it? CL ad was up when you wrote your reply but it's down now. Just curious.

Yeah I had arranged to purchase it last week, I think he just left it up in case I didn’t show up. It’s in my yard now, let me know if anyone needs parts…

I like it! Strong yard art candidate!

I scored a perfect OEM floor mat out of this one. The near perfect steering wheel went in my 73 on Sunday…now my horn works!
I’m trying to decide what to do with the rest of it…seems too ‘nice’ to cut and scrap it. I was thinking about cleaning it up and rattle canning it back to decent looking shape for some yard art. I have a large shed that I was thinking it would be cool to lift it on top with a neighbors excavator. Obviously that would take some engineering, but I like the idea of making it into a tree house or similar.
But ultimately I’m thinking it would be best cut the front clip and attach it to a wall somewhere, give it working LED lights, etc.

I have been looking for one much closer to put in the woods at my cabin similar to just not as elaborate as this. The waterfall grille is a nice touch!
