Let's talk this one through

That's incredible! What are the chances of two vehicles from the same appearing on FleaBay at the same time?

I can see the opportunity for a matched "laning" pair for some of you mudbusters.

They are ex coastguard hence similar number plates and yellow body panels.

I like them, you could get free parking on any beach lol
Imagine Pamela Anderson running across the beach to you lol... no forget that one.

I would be aware that these trucks have probably been in a salty environment, splashed seawater underneath from driving on beaches, or even part flooded or waves crashing over them.

I suspect that they were never rinsed off after every call out, so I would think the rear floor pan is rotten, (poss chassis too). This is also suggested by the rear rotting wings. I suspect fuel tank and fuel filler pipe rusted through too.

A good inspection prior to purchase could reveal a bargain. Or a lemon to match the bonnet lol

Always one to put a positive spin on things.

Accurate, but funny to read.

You can feel it, can't you, that familiar twitching feeling in the wallet area?

Been watching them but I'm a bit worried about rot on the one with 12k on the clock.

emjaybee · 26-01-2017, 13:11

So get 'em both.

You won't have to worry about spraying replacement panels to match.
