I went to look at an 88 BII today. It had been in storage for the last 10 year. Some rust spots in certan places forming but not that a shop couldnt fix for a good price. The interior was AMAZING. Like new in every way, I couldnt believe it. It is that nasty red but the fact its in day 1 condish I can live with it.
The real problem is the motor shot, I need this for DD use and I don't want try to fix what it has. Rather just do a swap of some kind. Oil everywhere, I could tell where it was leaking because it was all over, even on the tranny and transfer case. I noticed there wasnt much water in it and when I started it rust water with a little oil blew out the tail pipe.
After I pointed out the work it needs he knew it wasnt worth much. What would you offer? $500?
