oh boy.. have i heard lots of these excuses.. one from an 80+ year old guy who wouldn't sell a rusty old parts truck- heavily modified into a dump... oh im gonna restore it one day..wont take much at all, coat o paint basically... ( well it might have run 40 yrs ago when left parked in the open.)
another..non-military.. MG-TD parked in a yard.. obviously been there for years.. but potentially restorable... not for sale...gonna restore it... ten years later...much worse for wear..not for sale.. ten years later --basically a large pile of rust with some rubber tires emerging from the pile.
or the ridiculous prices..similar to the story of the new truck-trade.. "some guy" told me it was worth x-thousand dollars.... sheesh..
