This guy has got way too much money on this little fixup 2a, but it looks too good to go for scrap especially as it was a diesel powered vehicle maybe someone has the cash to save it.

scrap is currently worth (in Bundy anyway) about $100.00 a tonne. (10 cents a kilo) if it is delivered to the scrap yard. This makes it worth no more than a 100 clams less the cost of getting it to the yard, which values it at about $50-80 if he would listen to a little bit of reason

i think you would have to look at it in person but $400 doesnt seem to bad if someone is after those parts like the firewall and rear tub and tailgate dont look that bad but if it didnt get sold i think you might get it for $250+

The firewall doesn't look that crash hot, and Tubs and tailgates are plentiful and cheap.

I bought a new tub in perfect nick for $80 (and that was a rare swb military one with twin fillers!) I have 3 tailgates - all were free and I bought Gus' firewall off eBay for $150 rust free and powdercoated. I was the only bidder.

$400 is a rip off. I don't think I would even pay $250 for it.

Remember also, that they are also much worse in real life! The camera hides a lot of defects!

looks like it is already at the scrap yard if you check the pictures.
