I purchased this vehicle in 2004 on eBay. At that time it had 21,000 miles and prior owner believed it was used as some sort of emergency vehicle. Holes in roof for emergency lights. I still have the steel rear landing device and the original jump seats. These will go with the vehicle along with some interior fittings for the walls of rear storage. Six years ago I completely restored the exterior body and coated the undercarriage with anti rust material. Four years ago the vehicle was outside in a snow storm and got so much snow on the roof it caved in. We pushed the roof back out but it cracked the finish in three places. There is also some body damage on the right rear fender where the vehicle skinned a tree. The truck has been garaged except for the one outdoor snow storm. The dome liner is in bad shape and needs replacement. The rear storage area is very rough. My next task was to restore the wood flooring and add insulation in the roof. Motor runs good. All new wiring harness was installed five years ago. New tires with less than 1,000 miles on them. Six volt system. Always starts. Not designed to go over 60 MPH. Its been driven on the open road about 1,200 miles for trips from Wyoming to Denver.
