Uhg... I have to sell my rig... The rig I thought would be burried at my side when I die after a long full life.

It's a 1975 Scout II buggy (currently registered in CA... But not street legal).

I built this rig with the help and expertise of the guys in my club (dysfunctional forum - powered by vbulletin) so it's innovative, strong, safe, and will take you and your family or friends pretty much anywhere.

I'll post a video and pics from a trip just last weekend so you can see it in action. There are probably 20 or more guys on this forum who have seen how bad a$$ it is when it's in it's element at places like hollister hills, the rubicon, and fordyce. Please note that it has a custom license plate and a portable air tank that I'm keeping. Everything else is included. I've listed out pretty much every detail I could think of below.

$8,000 obo. I will consider a partial trade for your dirt bike/s and cash...

I'm also selling my trailer for a grand, but I'll make you a heck of a deal if you want it too.

Thanks --josh
