gutted! i got to devon today to buy this cab it was described as a1 condition on ebay and the pictures looked real good! someone must be good on photoshop or something!! the whole thing needed a respray, the sills were going, the roof woz fucked, the interior looked like an elephant had been living in there and smelt like it too and the engine was bodged to f**k, pipes cut n blocked off with bolts n jubilee clips, clutch knackered, aparently a new turbo too?....i think it was probably new to him anyway looked like it had been living in the ground for the last few years! knock sensor & cold start valve unplugged, got there and the engine was warm too!
not happy in the slightest, i just cant believe that the bloke was all yea yea yea its amazing on the phone, he sounded like a genuine geezer but he woz just trying to scheme me hard. pissed off is not the word!!
