Default Possible purchase of my 1st Rover

Hey everyone,

I have a chance to purchase a 1963 series IIa pickup truck. Its had a lot of work done on it in the last while. I think this is a no brainer purchase but I'll run it by you guys....

1963 Rover truck
-aluminum body
-rebuilt engine has 500 miles on it
-gas
-new rubber, brakes, starter, rad, fuel and water pumps and some other new work that I can't recall

price is 3000.00

the truck has primer all over and needs a paint job. I think it seems like a great truck at a great price......what do you think?

I would jump on it. Those are really rare to find, and $3000 is cheap.

Um...yeah.
If you dont buy that I will come to your house and beat you with the threaded end of a 4ft lead pipe.

That is one hell of a find.
Are you sure its primer? Rover sold,trucks in a similar color.

Its an all aluminum body so I think it must be just primed. Thanks for the replies. I'm just making the arrangements now and should have the truck in the beginning of August. I'll keep ya posted!!
