I have found a few that check "most boxes", but none that check them all. I have seen and even test drove a few that were right size, or engine, but none that had the passenger front door(which is high on list). If I can not find "the one" then I may be considering looking at true shorty schoolies. Following are my wants in order of most important to least:
-Mechanically sound(dont mind some repairs, but not gonna replace eng/trans soon as i get it)
-Diesel engine
-Minimal rust
-Shuttle type body(prefer Turtle Top, or ElDorado)
-12-20 passenger cap(dont need much room, me and a dog)
-Both driver AND passenger doors as well as the bifold side door for coach.
-HD alternator (185amp+) with high rev actuator
-Cruise Control
The one pictured has everything BUT is a couple feet shorter than I wanted, and is GAS! I may have still bought it if not for the gas.
I LOVE the look of the Turtle Top above any other out there. They just seem harder to come by and more $$$
JOLLY, If you are going by, I wouldnt mind a pic to see. But not worth a special trip.....UNLESS of course, it checks all those magic boxes above.Thnx
