So considering everything that needs to be done, what would you pay for it?

At $4k it is worth a closer look to confirm what it needs

It doesn't look that bad to me either. Not bad for 4K, better than mine was for 3K. Mine had been sitting for over 5 years, not a DD. It also had the original suspension in terrible shape and had broken a leaf spring in the front where it damaged the frame. The PO put another but didn't bother to fix the frame or replace the bushings. And my rust was worse. If you don't want to have to do any work to it then maybe you should save your money for a while until you can get one that is already redone.

Well you guys certainly gave me a lot to think about, it looks like he must have found a more promising buyer because I never received the more detailed pics from him that he said he would send me yesterday. While I would love to have one of these I don't know if it will be this one. Thanks for all the help guys, and buque if youre ever at the lake give me a hollar and I'll re pay you with a alcoholic beverage

My understanding is that he lives or works in Santa Fe and is only in ABQ a couple times a week. The people at the lot where it sits didn't even know it was for sale, they were assuming they'd be putting a new engine in it. I PM'd you, I have more pics.

Ok, he said he would send me close up pics yesterday. I guess I just have bad luck when it comes to craigslist and assume people are full of it
