Rabbit truck wanted
« on: May 07, 2011, 11:03:25 am »
Looking for my next project. Probably going to have to go to the south, southwest or west coast. want an 81-83 model. have a groovy 82 sedan to use as a donor. prefer a roller with straight body, no rust. don't care about running gear or interior. don't need a title just a bill of sale. gas or diesel. if you have one or know of one please let me know. thanks peeps.  ;D


Look, if corn and kudzu fall in love and have a baby in a lab under the supervision of scientists working in my employ, WHO AM I TO STOP THAT other than the CEO responsible for stopping it???

Arizona is only hot in the summer, actually many of parts of it are freezing cold in the winter.

I'm sure I could rustle up a few here in TN. I have a few leads for when I sell mine. Problem is, they rust no matter where you live.

What's your price range/condition preferences?

I'd like to find a straight body with no rot on it, no rust bubbles. Don't care if it runs or has no title or other issues.

Actually I think I am on one in Arkansas, a guy I know that does some really cool stuff has one. He made this:

I don't know what I am going to do as far as getting out there but I doubt it will be in a vehicle big enough to haul engines. If I ride out rather than fly it will probably be in the rabbit donor car. I may be going to the SF Bay area to get a vehicle and using it to haul a caddy roller back here. If I go to SF then I take I-80 all the way home, if I go to Socal or AZ then I would be going by you on I-40. Someday I may take you up on that place to flop offer buddy lol  ;D

Be careful, laws about towing are much stricter here in California than in other states, you can't tow a trailer without trailer brakes if it's over 500 lbs. and I don't think you are allowed to flat tow a car with another car either. The CHP has been on everybody's case since the state ran out of money. Not that I care, I just don't want to see you hassled, I would only do it on a late sunday night.
