Kinja'd!!!

Almost a month after going and looking at this wagon selling for $1000 i decided to send the guy an offer for $500. He just accepted it, now i need to figure out a way to tow it back from CT and I’ll get to add a third vehicle that need a bunch of work to my fleet.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Current vague plan is to get it running/driving and do some quicky rust repair. Then get either police or limo springs to raise it up some and get some steel wheels with all terrain tires.

I’m super jealous.

I’ve been considering a panther wagon to be my daily, and that’s a pretty damn good price.

Good luck with getting it home!

You got a nice set of Torque-Thrust wheels for that price. And they came with a free car!

500$ that sounds like the beginning of a Lemons Car

just needs Oppo and Jalopnik stickers and it’s ready to go

500 ain’t bad for a set of couches on wheels.

What dumb idea? I don’t see a single dumb idea anywhere on this post. This idea is glorious.

At a minimum that’s a deal.

Well, I’ll keep my eyes pealed for when you eventually sell it.

But since you’re offering to do the hard work... want to do a manual swap for me?

That is the one thing it won’t be getting. I want one vehicle with an Auto for when I’m lazy or somewhere i know I’ll be stuck in traffic. Right now between my partner and i, all our vehicles are manuals.
