Even for $400 there is alot of good parts there, the sheetmetal looks mint. I would love to have the hood/fenders and doors for my truck, they look like they are in alot better shape than what I have. You couldn't buy the cheap chinese stuff for that money.My guess would be electrical fire, or something to do with chassis integrety. Looks like the frame was extended, so it may not pass inspection here.
If I could pick it up for $400 I would consider it, but if the chassis is Junk it may be more of a PITA to get roadworthy here.
