LMAO..Rear seat has been removed now and the wild Scooby Doo theme is part of history. =D>

Best part- We can find NO rust anywhere! We've had it up on the rack. Inspected it. We do have very small places to do some weld repairs. A little crack at the top of the windshield frame. and a couple of tiny ones in other areas. All in all a great purchase for $1800.00!

I had been watching Ebay for quite a while. When I saw this auction. I yelled for my son and did the "Buy IT NOw". We snatched it up from 37 watchers, the seller said. Come to find out the rear axle does need repaired. Because someone didn't torq it down properly and did some damage. 100.00 to fix. The auction had only been posted for a very short time.

The seller said it wouldn't move on it's own power....He didn't check the front hubs. :-| Rick went out and took a look. The hubs weren't engaged. 111!!!
