This is not the vehicle I've posted before. Different Carryall. $2800 or
best offer. Take a look at the web site for photos.

I bought this truck a couple months ago to get a few items I needed for the
carryall I'm restoring. It is as good or even cleaner than the one I'm
keeping, but has had a metal roof and floor put in it. A good job was done
on both, but I want to do a more authentic restoration.
I removed some glass and the lower rear hatch. I have another lower rear
hatch to go with it. It is dented but complete, and can be repaired.
All window crank mechanisms are there and work. The glass in the rear-most
side windows and the doors is good. The back hatch windows, windshield, and
window glass just behind the doors will need to be replaced.
There are three combat rims with the truck, and three M37 split ring rims.
The previous owner told me the engine was "out of the crate" and it looks
it. I have not run it and can not verify anything other than it looks good.
I would actually like to keep the engine and would be willing to negotiate
a price reduction if it is not needed for the buyer's restoration plans.
The gages were removed, but I have most of them. I also have a good
windshield frame that I'll include with the sale.
New, vinyl covered wiring has been run through the truck. It isn't
authentic, but looks complete and should give years of good service.
The doors fit and latch nicely. Running boards and fenders are in good shape.
The battery box top will need to be replaced, although the base of the box
is there and is solid with no rust outs. There is a dent just behind the
passenger side fender. The fender and running board are fine… The passenger
door shuts just fine and seems to be unaffected by this dent. (See the web
site for detailed photo of this area.)
