I emailed the guy and he said that I couldn't look at it until I bid & won it. He did say that there was a small hole in the cab floor, and the
front arches needed some attention, the sills needed attention but the main rust was under the nose - needing replacing. Is $4500 the going rate for
this type of van in this condition? |

ishouldnt really say it like that, as i havent seen it, but if youre happy then sweet. the rust will come out over time so you will need to be
prepared. being complete is a good thing.

Sorry 72 twincab , but you are way off the mark
. I think this is expensive for a bus that needs a resto, Also what do you think he has to hide if he wont show you it until you have won the
bidding, what is he scared of.
This bus looks nice with a paint job.
But it needs what all unrestored buses need, ie sills ,doglegs, front etc etc etc.
So why do people pay $4-$6k, when they can still get them for under $2k, and they will still need the same work.
There is a guy on this forum PMGBUS, he finds buses and sells them on do a search, he sells them for under $2000, as he knows what it will take to get
them sorted.
But if you want to spend more than you have to thats up to you.I am only trying to advise and help.
Cheers
Dave

Hang on a minute.
Not all unrestored splittys need sills and doglegs.
I have owned several.

Saw one of these just recently bought for 10k and needed complete undercarriage replaced and back to original to drive legally and SAFELY for however
much. My old flatmate had a double barndoor splitty bought for $900 and sold couple of years later for a couple of grand approx. Now knowing what some
people think its worth, i would have sold the other half, taken a loan, put it on creditcard!!!Its all relative

Should be able to check it out for that price. Too bigga risk to buy unsighted. What if it has been badly pranged and bogged?? Not being able to view
smells wrong.
