This is really close, but I am going to give it a CP. For that money, the seller really should fix some of those nit picky things. I think they are about $1K high on it.
If it is good as he says, it is worth every penny to someone. Not me, but someone else. These things go for ridiculous money when the are sorted out, and it does not look like it would be too difficult to get there. NP
Corvair, because he loves it. Otherwise, the F100 is the obvious choice. Easy to fix, dead reliable once it is fixed. Floor pan’s not too bad if you can do basic welding. Rivets, caulk, and a roll of sheet metal will get you by in a pinch.
I have had a couple of experiences early in my life where a mix up or mistake ended up with a odd interaction with the police, although none as dramatic as this. Both have resulted in a funny story, although it was annoying at the time. As I have reflected on those interactions, I have wondered how different my…
B - Bust
NP - This could be the ultimate sleeper, and after a transplant from a donor mustang, could check the box of a brown manual wagon to boot. It would be expensive, but I would love to have this thing looking bone stock on the outside with a built 302 and upgraded rear end, suspension and brakes.
They were piles, but damn, they looked good. It’s like that beautiful girl in high school that you knew was going to be trouble, and you were going to regret it, but you asked her out anyway.
CP - Nice car, but it is probably about $2K too high, especially since it is coming from a private seller.
Everyone show this piece of “writing” to every English major they know as proof that they are wasting their money. The fact that you would publish this as a someone who is paid to write, is “unforgivable”.
I am going with NP, simply because it is working example of an old and unique (at least here) military vehicle that has tags and title (not easy to get for some of these type things). It appears parts are available and easy to work on, so I think it is a NP for the right person, which is not me.
Drag race with a riding lawn mower. Tractor pull type competition with a golf cart. Otto doing a strong man style pull of it with his teeth (OK, maybe that is a bad idea). Can you do a burn out? Can you do a donut?
NP, if it is indeed as straight and clean as it appears. Even though it has 4 doors, I think it would be a cool resto mod. Fix the interior, drop a 302 in it with a 5 speed, disc brake conversion and drive it looking exactly like it does now (maybe find a hubcap).
Can you point to where the big truck hurt you? Let it go already.
This, not to mention the skill set they have is very valuable and does not readily translate into a civilian economy. Some of these guys get high level security jobs or go into law enforcement, but the pay can not compete.
After an exhaustive search for all of 3 minutes, I have found a picture of “Bob”
I welcome a new American cityscape that is absolutely full of these things and all-but devoid of cars.
I find it entertaining. I would 10 times rather watch this then some review of some super car that I will never own or even drive. A lot of YouTube content is just some guy constantly dropping f-bombs for 45 minutes while they try to show you out to change the inner fender on a 83 Chevette, which is just boring.
This will never happen, just an excuse to say “Well, I tried”. Liability and other issues will make it impossible, and people who street race aren’t exactly the most law abiding and conscientious citizens.
