It's going to be a keeper unless I find M132 parts I need cash for. :-)

And the ROPS kit is going to the scrap metal dealer once the prices pick back up unless someone wants it here. This A2 never had it installed and hence not butchered.

I don't know how you do it but you always manage to find the perfect ones, well, with the exception of that color. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

But if that whole body is Rhino lined like it looks like it is how do you plan to remove that?

I was able to find one a couple years ago after several years of searching, there are stil some good ones out there but you better have deep pockets.
