Uh, the seller seems cool just by looking in the garage. I'd go look at the Sammy.

Well, it looks pretty good with those tractor tires on it. (And the current owner seems to be very proud of those headlights)

It looks pre-Hong-ed for you already, and for use on the farm it would probably be just right!

RIGHT!? Sadly, I already have two berkeleying “farm trucks” (disco and poop-finder) ...though neither are verts!

You need this man! Great off-roader and beat around the farm vehicle. Get it, you won't regret it

This is the enabling I’m looking for. If it “runs, drives, and stops,” as the ad says, I can’t lose, right!? RIGHT!?

You posted it here, and we all know what that means.  "No, that's a horrible idea" just isn't what we do here.  Looks like a lot of fun if you have a decent place to play with it.

Order some spare axle shafts cause I dont think stock sammy axles like 5:13s/lockers/low tcase gears and tractor tires especially if there is traction involved. Mud they should be fine.

Coming from someone who’s owned three of them and drive them all year long with that least 3 full seasons over many years with no doors or tops or tailgates etc and drove them ALL OVER...

 

Do it.

I've got to believe the tires alone are worth more than he's asking.

If you don't do it, GRM should disown you. It will be the best $1500 you can spend.

Hard to find any Sammy at that price nowadays.  Toyota axles make a nice swap.

Let's say you don't get it, then it shows up down the road from you and you drive by it every day kicking yourself. Can you live with that ?
