I've had this about 4 years. Bought without title and have just used it around the farm, I was without a pickup at the time but that has changed now. It's been shedded since I got it. Runs like a champ. Starts everytime, takes off and goes. Great little motor.
See pics for exterior condition. Also have the extra spoked steel wheel to match the other 3 (tire on it is shot). Decent tread on mounted tires.
Put a new starter in this spring. Battery about 1.5 years old. At the farm I hardly ever get it out of second gear due to high gear ratio, 3rd if I'm "flying" down the waterway.
The Challenges:
Looks like hell. Dents and all...that's been a positive for me hauling trees and junk off the place. If you fully shut the tailgate better have a large screwdriver handy to release it.
Doors need help to shut, windows need help going up.
Rear main seal has a leak.
There is an electrical draw somewhere so I unhook the battery when I'm done...no big deal, this ain't a daily driver.
I wouldn't take it to the car wash unless you're ready to take it down to bare metal.
Positives:
Want to teach your kids how to drive a stick shift? Here you go. Need a beater around that's a helluva lot cheaper than a side by side? Here you go.
I will even include the 1/2" box end I use just for connecting / disconnecting the battery.
