Well, at that price we assume it runs and drives. As it's 50 years old, everything can be or is typically worn out. My '48 had only 25,000 miles on it but everything needed attention. I have put $8000 in parts in it. It ran fairly well when I bought it 6 years ago, but everything was loose, worn etc. This is not uncommon. Drive it and see. Everything work? Electrics, gears, winch? Sheetmetal is also the key. Is it all there? Rotted out? Fame rotted? Naturally you want the PW, but keep a clear head when looking at it.
