The Army don't get that good stuff. Most of the time cars can be signed over to a fenced storage lot during deployments. I saw one on Ft.Lewis but it has to be a running car ,(won"t be when you get back a year or more later exposed to the elements IMHO). No projects allowed. Do you have a family member that will let you store on thier property if you cannot sell?

I know I have not gotten the pictures up yet, but I have not been home in over a month, but there is no build sheet, and my wife says the fender tag is completly unreadable (I had her check for me last night). I have also dropped the price down to $3000, need to get it moved out quick.

oK, Thanks for checking.
Is there any way that the back of the fender tag can be read?
Or a picture posted and I can read it backwards?

Sucks you have to drop the price.
Are the rear frame rails shot?

Ok I managed to get my wife to take a couple of pictures for me. One is a close up of whats left of the fender tag, the other is the K member. Also added the trunk and floorboard photos. Hope they help, she was a little lost when I was explaining it to her, can always add more if needed.

I don't see any fender tag picture. Looks like a decal. The fender tag is a steel stamped plate attached by 2 screws.

Haha wow, I didnt even look at the pictures, just saved them from my computer and uploaded them. Jokes on me I guess,  :pullinghair: anyway, I will update later when I get her to take a picture of the actual fendertag area. Thanks for the heads up

Roof is pretty bad, going to need the whole skin replaced.

Is it just the skin though? Just as long a the frame/supports under the kin are good

I believe that it is just the skin, but it is something I will check for sure and then post a pic.

Looks like an original blue on blue car.
Fender tag will say for sure.

Blue on Blue is awesome!

So I finally was able to get some time at home, and here are a few updates. The fender tag is gone, 2 nice little holes where the screws should be.

YellowFin, as far as the roof goes, it is just the skin. The supporst have surface rust on them, but are very solid. I have attached a pic to show the surface rust on them.
