Got to be worth a look at least?

I might pop and see this before new year

Surely it would break for more than that?

has to be worth a look if its welding - though it might be some awkward areas but id say its probably worth a go.

good price

larson · 25-12-2013, 12:43

only welding... i would have something like that as a project

for me the welding is the easy bit the hard bit is getting the wife to watch for fire as i weld...

Yep well worth that and yes it would break for more

Galvanised body on these I think... so must be chassis rust.

3500kg towing capacity I think, we did look at one of these prior to buying the Mav, but more utility than comfort.

That is a good price, but you don't see many about. Maybe they are neglected more underneath, as they have better bodies.

Certainly a more reliable capable beast than the farmers previous choice, which had an aluminium body

yep all of the above is true, they are a true work horse but the Chassis's rot like hell

The heart and transmission are ni on bullet proof plus they power my KA

to be honest i think i would rather weld the chassie as sometimes the thin stuff is a right pain in the back side...
