I have seen other MT plates like that. I am pretty sure it's the sun's fault.

Are you serious? If so, are you 15 yrs old? Damn, to lose a friend over an approach to door panel holes, crazy! Is it April 1st, sure feels like it.

Unless the "6" is a county designation, I get a difference of 600,001. I guess that would be counted as close in horseshoes and necking  .

"6" is Gallatin county. "12" is Hill county, a couple hundred miles to the north of Gallatin.

Having spent about 11K on my bus so far, this one looks pretty good for an asking price of $8500
There's no pics of the roof/drip rail issues mentioned, but for the cargo floors to be so good still, it would seem the roof issue couldn't be too bad. Runs, drives, stops, has all glass, a front bumper and even a Vw emblem still...these things add up.

Has it had a dash fire? The dash is heartbreakingly rusty (look under the radio  ) and only highlights what awaits the new owner in the rest of poor thing.

Is that really a good deal? No gates, no engine core, a ton of one year only parts to find and crusty bondo everywhere? Not so much.
That guys dreaming whatever his reserve is. |
