It’s a rust bucket, but someone who can weld panels can get a good deal.  Be prepared for this:  http://www.rustbuster.nl/Bus_zijpaneel/index1.htm  If you set your browser to 200% magnification you can also see rust at the bottom of the slider and other places. Lots of patch welding and panel clips needed, but doable for the serious restorer with a MIG welder and the time.  

 

I’ve done similar work on MGBs, and it’s kind of fun.

 

Not for the faint hearted.

I wonder why is so cheap? See some rust that week need attention and the few things they mention but 4k is giving it away these days... Sharing with my friends, that's a crazy deal!
