A couple of days from now im going to look at a 109 2a wagon. its got an an aright chassis and what ive seen of the bulkhead is pretty good,has a series 2a gearbox in it but the owner said it's shot but in the back of it its got a series 3 geabox and pto winch.it has a safari roof ,heater and a radio
he is asking $1500 what do you guys think?

Pics? Does it go, stop etc roadworthy?

some things I could suggest to check, in my limited knowledge,

• would be the movement of front wheels checking railko bushes (aka king pins, steering pins) in the front swivels uneven tyre wear can be a tell tale for that one
• steering column movement and play in steering and the steering relay(pain to replace and or fix)
• and diff backlash
• and then the normals brakes, oil leaks, electrics working etc

that is a start anyway i could go way further but to me they are the jobs i try to avoid, i am sure the guys here have more stuff but like i say, probly the first things i look at when getting one and tbh the lastest truck i purchased had all those wrong with it and i replaced em all except for the steering relay.
The fact u are getting a pto with it sweetens the deal a bit i must say sounds cool good luck with it bud
series 3 box will have syncros which wont hurt none
