[Monte Carlo Man]

I don't like Craig's list or Ebay for the simple reason that the person selling the vehicle can misrepresent the vehicle and not get into any trouble.
My opinion is that the people who owns it, thinks that they have a prize.
The first ones that goes for sale are usually either basket cases or a pretty nice piece. You don't know until you travel to look for it.
I once drove 7 hours to look at a car that a relative bought off a auction online and when I got there the car had no brakes and the battery was dead and the engine didn't sound like it would make it home.
The auction said that the car was roadworthy and all you had to do was come and get it. That was a long 7 hour drive home and the customer never again asked us to go get a car for him.
I think that he was probably better off passing on that vehicle because if it had apparent problems - even before he bought it, just think of all the hidden problems that would have surfaced on the way home.

There are some good used Sub's in Pennsylvania, but you either have to pay top dollar or you have to put more work into it then what it is worth.

My opinion is that if you bought one from someplace like Oklahoma, where there is no rust and no road salt and no sea water then you can find one that will only need some body work and some rubber mounts and bushings replaced and put a new motor / transmission into it and you would be further ahead then having to rebuilt the entire body structure.

Forum members could probably point you in the right direction.

There is a guy about 25 miles down the road from me that has a junk yard with a couple of nice burbs in it and he has ones that he drives. It would probably be possible to buy one off him that was already done or one that just needed work, easier then trying to find one out in some farmers field.
