If a guy can get it for good price, not a bad one to start with! Lots of good parts, straight frame and not all butchered up.

i see almost no good parts on this, maybe the winch and radiator armor.
the frame is rusted all the way through. even the combat rims look badly rust damaged.

That is one of the worst frames I have ever seen. I'd say parts only and not many at that.

I didn't see the close up pictures of the frame, but gauges are there, pedestal lights , windshield frame. If the tranny is good and transfer case, frame brackets at there. Still good parts there.

It does have some good front end parts, winch, louvers, etc. Be interesting to see what it goes for.
