Putting a feeler out...

[gonebuggy]

Well guys i hate to say it, but i'm seriously considering selling the bus.

The body is all together and relatively very solid. It's got loads of patina, and is the PERFECT candidate for a rat-look or hoodride type vehicle. a few small holes in the body, but all floors and beams are solid. this is no rust bucket. The front bumper was not on in this pic, but is on now:






The interior is amazing (one or two small rips in the headliner) otherwise near perfect. the dash needs to be wired up, but it has not been hacked or spliced. Just the way it came from the factory. Clean title in my families name.

I have pretty much all the parts for the engine as well. Case is awesome and ready to go. Brand new heads (over $400 each) brand new piston/cyls. New gasket set, cam,lifters,bearings pushrod tubes, seals, bearings. rods have been rebushed and crank has been mic'd and polished. I have all the engine tin and mint heater boxes. The motor is about ready to assemble.

Anyone interested? I'm open to selling the motor and bus seperately.

I'd like to see $3000 for the whole package. Or $1000 for the bus, and $2000 for the motor bits. OBO

I hate to sell it, because it's one amazing find. Either to restore or to rat-look. Not too many 7 seaters of this year around in these parts, esspecially not this solid. Lack of space and time prompt this sale, I would keep it otherwise. Imagine having this thing slammed on nice stockies, or mags with a nice reliable motor in the back. great for cruising with buddies in comfort style with reliability. The potential on this is endless, and near everything is there to get it rolling

Thanks,

Alex
