    Will do! Funny thing is my wife didn't even flinch when I told her about it. I wonder if she intends to commandeer it.;)

    Thanks to everyone for the input. Going to look at it tomorrow morning. Barring some major rust out in the undercarriage it will probably follow me home.

    Mutt advice before I pull the trigger, help me out mutt guys!

    Renodogs, I appreciate your words of caution. I am a 30 year machinist and fabricator and specialize in sheet metal forming tooling for the aerospace industry. Having to cut form and weld a few replacement parts doesn't bother me as long as the whole tub doesn't need to be redone. Who knows...

    Mutt advice before I pull the trigger, help me out mutt guys!

    Quote from the add. the owner lost the original title. It now has been registered with the state and on the waiting period for pink slip, but vehicle can still be sold. It has the collector plate on it now and that too can be transferred over to the new buyer.

    Mutt advice before I pull the trigger, help me out mutt guys!

    More photos. A little rusty topside, I will have to check out the underside in person. I don't mind a little body repair work as long as it is basically solid. We are not going for a full restoration project on this, more something for me and my kids to play with, fixing up as we go. Most five...

    Mutt advice before I pull the trigger, help me out mutt guys!

    I just got a hold of the owner, one small spot of rust through in the floor board. He says it runs good, just a little sluggish at higher speeds probably carb gunk. He said it was cut.:cry: Is this a deal breaker if it is a good runner? It was state patrol inspected, and passed for what that's...

    Mutt advice before I pull the trigger, help me out mutt guys!

    Anything special to watch out for? Owner says it runs and drives, all origional. What does uncutt refer to, did they cut the body to de-mill? I am fairly mechanical, and understand the rubber stuff will need replacement, etc. It's the stuff a person unfamiliar with this vehicle might miss that I...

    Can you help me with the width of a mutt?

    That is half the problem, I dont remember. It is a stripped 24' travel trailer made into a flat bed, so it's not as wide as a normal car hauler. I was going to measure when I get home.

    Can you help me with the width of a mutt?

    My computer is fighting with PDF files at the moment. Either the width is not in the first three tech manuals I looked at, or it is behind the lovely black squares my computer is generating. I am trying to find the wheel to wheel outside width to see if one will fit on my trailer. I tried a...

    Nhc 250 starter replacement options.

    The cranking speed on my engine (nhc 250, m923) has begun to slow down. I load tested the batteries, all good. It still starts but I think I might be on borrowed time. Has anyone tried the Bosch long haul starters? At 282.00 new they seem reasonable price wise. Any other suggestions? thanks.
