Just got it from Maine! Engine in great condition but the trans is stuck in neutral.

 

not bad, original engine at least. you can prolly fix the tranny pretty easy

 

Good pics. What did you give for it?





Just outta curiosity, the "rotary power" on the tail gate.

Is that painted on and is the metal raised for the lettering?

I mean to say that if the paint or whatever the white is was gone, could you still see the words in the metal?

 

It has some work to be done, but you just found a piece of gold.

 

Feel like total stickers. Just really thick stickers. I dont know for sure.... Well, now starts the shopping list which i can tell will take years to aquire. I know FD3Boost and Scalliwag (possibly the other forum) both just got REPUs so i hope to keep in contact with all of you guys cause my knowledge of the truck is limited at best.

 

I hear that man.

I am picking mine up this Sunday.

I hope that I get lucky on parts but I have been looking around for the last few days and it looks bleak



Who cares right?!?? I am gonna have a REPU

 

Nice project.Looks like the rust removal and restoration will take awhile tho.At least it runs.Damn tail lights and other small parts will be a pain to find tho.

 

Rotary Power on the tailgate is a factory sticker.. Vintagerotarydecals.com makes a complete replacement set.. and they also make replacement VIN plates incase yours (like mine) is completely illegible..
