Probably a pretty decent price, considering its a 110 and a canvas top. Assuming no major issue with rust or mechanical things of course. I paid less for my van/hardtop 90.

The military usually fixed things when they broke so it seems. Mine had a brand new speedo and lots of other stuff looked new too, like the a-arm ball joint.

 

If I had the $$$$$$ I'd buy it in a heartbeat regardless of the condition. It's located less than 40 minutes away from where I live in NH!

 

It would take it close to an hour to make the trip, not very speedy. Neighbor down the street got one in Tennessee for $2500 and trailered it back and restored after no telling how many purchases from Rovers North.

 

OK I am drooling would look nice in my military vehicle collection, wish I had $
If it is anything like the gi vehicles I have it is made to haul weight and tow = slow like 35/45 MPH top speed with very high gearing

 

Seem like my neighbor got a better price...

 

For some reason leaf sprung rovers don't command as high of a price as coilers.

Edit: here's a photo from the craigslist ad, so in the future we know what we were all looking at.

 

I can confirm this. Even mostly empty you will get 55 maybe 60 on flat road and the engine will be screaming like a banshee. Put a little bit of a grade in front of you and 35 to 45 is it. You'll be driving with flashers on and semis will be angrily passing you. Sometimes bicycles too.

 

I want it so bad.

 

Who here would spend $15K on a camo 1985 F250 with 4WD and the straight 6 engine?

So why would anyone buy this old thing? Just sayin....
