[quote=""Jeff V.""]Especially since Coop's is already registered. A private buyer wouldn't have to deal with all the paperwork hassles he did. That could be worth some good money in itself.

Hang onto it until you actually need to sell it or the prices go completely nuts.[/quote]

Yeah. I drove it all the way to practice the other day. That’s a good 20 some miles. That doesn’t sound like a lot but over half of that is back roads. I really do enjoy it, carry a Bluetooth speaker, have the doors off, and it’s fun. Just soooo slow. Lol.

It also stalls when you let your foot off the gas, has the higher output alternator. But yeah, give me that ac.

I'm going to leave this one here just because I want to follow up and see what it sells for.

I didn't notice before, but it says it has forty seven miles? How is that even possible? Do they zero the odometers after a major overhaul, or has this thing really sat around for 18 years without being used?

It'd be great if the gun popped out of a little slot, sort of like the umbrella on a Rolls Royce :lol:

Also the marine corps background is different than the army. I knew people that were before me....and waited till after me.
