Jake Kuhn 1,554 #1 Posted September 7, 2012 Well, it happened today, I finally got one of those deals you just can't believe!!! Headed to our local show and I scored big! I got a 57 rj with most parts except for a motor, including a working brake kit. Now I have all the parts to get mine going. Did I mention it was 100 bucks, and I did not even haggle on the price!!! I also got a pre 62 dump cart for 10 dollars!! The dump cart needs all new sheet metal, its pretty much shot, but for 10 bucks I was going to rescue it! Here are pics, When I get them back from the show on sunday I'll get better pics. Jake 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fireman 1,021 #11 Posted September 7, 2012 Nice Score! Raised letters on the hood and no cast steering wheel it's either a late 56 or a 57 (in my opinion). Like Steve said need some pics! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
