congratulations!!!!
did you buy private party or dealer? if it is pp, does the 100,000 mile warranty still apply?
who will do the work needed? what color? and what is the mileage.
if you look at the used shells mentioned earlier in this thread, report how that went.
have fun, congratulations!

I have a 1989 Bronco with 240,000 miles, lots of off road and no major problems! I have a 1979 IH Scout II that weighs about the same as the Bronco
Talk about tough, The Scout II is about as tough as they get.

Woody, there is a place in Clairemont off of Kearny Villa Road, It is behind a couple of hotels, Clairemont Mesa @ Hwy 163 North West corner, they
have many , many Shells, I believe new as well as used, suggestion try and buy one where the rear window will drop down for cleaning etc, really makes
a lot of difference. |
I know the place you are talking about.... it's actually located on Kearny Mesa Road, a place that sells "Leer" products. They have lots and lots of
used stuff also. All stacked up all over the place. They are great to work with. I bought my Leer shell there.

i bought it from a guy who buys vehicles at the reno auto auction. they guarantee the engine, tranny, suspension and frame. it graded a 94 where they
usually grade out 83-87. one owner (chula vista) with 97k. it came with a tonneau cover which i happened to mention while answering an ad for a shell.
the guy wants to trade me for a shell off his 2001 and carpet kit for my cover. we'll see saturday. the high book on it is 13,700 according to my
insurance and i paid 10,900 + tax.
it's getting a new timing belt, water pump, hoses and belt, top engine cover/shroud, and front brakes redone. i'll worry about the tires when Ahnald
gives me my taxes back.
STOKED!
