Wanted: somewhat close to Maine/NH RRC or D1

[Roving Beetle]

Just sold the Honda Accord project beast so i have some "fun-money" again. Looking for a cheapish D1 or RRC to play with. Seriously in the market NOW for a running, driving truck that need not be really pretty.

I would really like to have it in the next coupled days (why i mentioned Maine/NH area) so i can use it at the "winter romp" here in Maine in a couple days. If nothing pops up i will probably look for a little nicer RRC or Series truck closer to spring time. I have a few leads already.

Thanks!

Doug.

doug, i wouldn't rush into a truck just for one event. find the one you REALLY want. just drive your yota up there and ride shotgun with someone!

I just want a toy anyway - I'm not going to buy a piece of sh!t just for the event but if someone has something neat for a good price I'd take it.

I am not going to buy anything too crusty only to have it break on the trail and be a pain in the ass for everyone else I'm wheeling with. I don't want to be "that guy".

I am planning to drive the Audi down to the Romp if nothing surfaces - heated seats are nice! i have had a few offers to ride shotgun and be the "winch bitch" so that works for me if nothing else.

Maybe Mike will sell you his

Thanks - it's sold, emailed them last night. It looked decent.

 

[AmityD90]

Too bad!
looked perfect. Had studded tires and more "newer" parts.

Wheel what you bring!

I saw also a older range rover with a plow for dirt cheap also on craigs

That Rangie is ROUGH - and I am not kidding.

Must have got your tax return

 

[Roving Beetle]

Tax *return*??? I have had ZERO idea what one of those is for many many many years.

I did however commit to buying a '66 Series 2a with only 45K or so original miles...... contingent on the brakes working and it running - has not been used in a month or so which is like years to a Rover! LOL.

I hope it works out, it's in Rockland so it's pretty close and is a nice little truck overall. Great start to a restoration project as it's all there, original and drivable. (I hope!)
