All kidding aside, Chris' truck really is nice. It's the cleanest, best maintained Rover I've seen probably ever, in any year or model. Serious, if you are local, at least swing by and check it out and talk some turkey with Chris. Oh yeah, I'm sure he'll throw in a whole bag of zip ties at no extra cost.
How much should I ask for my Classic?

tell me you are kidding. I predict no bids, there will be no emotion involved. I think your truck is nice, but I sold my Rangie two years ago which was equally nice and had more offroad goodies for 5500 with 125k on the clock. You're my friend and all, but be reasonable.
sure it is, but you can't be in a hurry, and you're not gonna get it on ebay, try lrx and post on the other forums, and wait this is a slow time of year for rover salesChris-St Louis said:

Well lets see I too went through my truck and replaced and fixed all issues, I drove it for 2.5 years and wheeled it, and I know Chris and his truck first hand, I have been in his truck, and seen under the hood and etc. That's how I know.
Chris-St Louis said:Word!
1575?
It would rest next to the 90 that I rarely drive.
The reason I ask is, I think I now own the truck and it has issues that will need to be addressed when it arrives. So besides the difference in body (full of big dents) I was wondering if you had done any of these repairs or what comparable repairs were performed...draaronr said:
