What's more alarming is the former solid looking singlecab it's on top of :o

As for the rest of it? crush on!, it just makes my POS parts busses more rare and valuable ;)

solid looking single cab? :o

you mean the one with no frame left? also sporting a two-piece cam shaft? and exposed rear torsion bars? and the rare shock tower delete option?
the prior owner has a distinct reputation. he has the ability to turn any nice vw into a shitbox inside of 3 years. to prove my point, he has a 96 jetta with no rockers left. and don't think thats its from out east. its never left the okanagon. i didn't even know those things COULD rust, let alone rot off completely
