[VAL] 1965 Safari
Hello there again, friends. I read daily but rarely post. I
joined earlier this year, having just purchased a '65 Overlander.
I have enjoyed it so far by using it as a backyard getaway and
lawn ornament but have not taken it on the road yet, mainly
because of my difficulty of keeping my vehicle on the road even
without towing a 26 foot A/S... which brings me to the point.
I have run across a 1965 Safari in someone's cow pasture which,
when I saw, thought would better suit my needs. The outside is
has no dents, cuts, nor holes but is in definite need of polish.
But the inside is in quite a sad shape. There is only one goucho
opposite the sink area. The goucho in the front [or the twin
dining seats - whichever it had] has been removed. The range was
ripped out and replaced by a dorm fridge. The original refrigerator
and cabinet were removed completely. Inside was painted a bad color.
P/O said that there were no soft spots but he put 1/4" plywood on
the floor all through the unit. The unit is located in a close
vicinity so the problem of transporting it home is nil. How can
I determine a fair price to pay for it? Any suggestions?
