Needs an engine (Ford 302), paint, and other fiddling.

Decided to spend my time/money on the '50 Chevy I just bought , so I'm cutting this one free.

$250 and no other reserve. Zero expectation that it would exceed $2010, so I assume it's okay to post here?

It's actually a pretty cool vehicle... insanely tight turning radius, etc... it's too bad the relatively "radical" looks were usurped by the "mainsteam" Rover. Most parts are easy (engine, transmission, transfer case) and others are a bit more challenging (brakes) but compared to a Rover at least you know you're not up against a $3500 transmission job....

I feel bad about not completing it, but frankly was put off when my intended 351W solution proved too complex....

I REALLY Like this thing if I was buying a DD instead of a challenge car I would scoop it up in a heartbeat

Thanks for the bid jhaas!

There are some limited brake parts out there (new and used)... likely a lot more available if we could unlock the IVECO part numbers.

But you're right that this is likely the main "problem" parts area for a truck that will be used a lot. I was going to convert the front brakes to GM just to not have to worry about it.

Very strange. High bidder had high (over 100) 100% feedback, was corresponding with me throughout the auction (seemed like a responsible adult), immediately contacted me after the auction, then disappeared off the face of the earth!

Bidder 2 bought something else, so it's relisted... same deal as before! But I'll do a "buy it now" for $1100 for GRM folks...went for over $1500 on Ebay last time around.
