Re: Hello Folks

I passed, the young man did not know much about the vehicle. He told me he was selling it to gather up some cash to buy a house. I called a couple of local shops and they have had the car in and checked out. They didnt recommend buying anything from him as he likes to run vehicles into the ground. A...

Re: Hello Folks

I figured, I could hold out for more but, why? I did a quick accounting and ability to start the repair process and before I knew it, a couple of guys were making offers. One gent bumped it up a few hundred bucks to seal the deal. He has to fly in, lodge, drive it home and he is authorized to make r...

The local DMV is backed up on transfers and processing due to Covid closures. By dumb luck, one of the lad...

Re: Hello Folks

Thanks for the advise everyone. I am waiting on the total review team to contact me. I am hesitant on trying to rebuild another vehicle. A few years ago, I bought a 1980's M998 Army Humvee. It was a nightmare finding parts, finding mechanics to work on it and tricky to customize it. The only benefit...

I stopped at my local garage and they gave me a few leads on parts buyers that may be interested in the car. The total was over the value b...
