Very nice... Keepin it ? Selling it ? |
Keeping it until the end of summer.
I always buy one in the winter, clean it up, drive it around for a few months and sell it at the end of summer.
One a year. _________________ www.cultwagen.com |

yeah, it was up for awhile.
Got a really good deal on it. Think people were scared away beacuse it has a few random rust spots. Sat under a tree in the mountains for 15 years. You would think it was a rust bucket.
Turned out the channels and door pillars are nice and have no holes. Only bad spot on the pan was under the battery. _________________ www.cultwagen.com |

Looks good. I looked at that car last year. Did you buy it from the guy in Santa Clara? I thought I saw it listed in the classifieds as being in Oregon a few months back. What have you done to it other than cleaning up the paint and the wheels? |

Replaced the passenger door with a OG paint door
Fixed the bumper supports so I could put a rear bumper on
Fixed it so I could mount the running boards
did some minor body work and used beryl green to touch it up
Installed a gas tank (was running out of a 2 gallon gas can)
Got all the electrical working
Put a new beam in and went lower in the back _________________ www.cultwagen.com |
