Says it's historically acurate, but it has a rops kit in an A1....yeah I think not! Good luck with that.

15k and for example the exhaust pipe totally rusted out? I really hope nobody is stupid enough to buy that thing...

When he had it listed before I think it was 21,000! There was a MWO for ROPS in an A1 right before the A2 came out I believe. I like the shovel and straps. :roll:

He was able to drop his price 6k by removing the rear view mirror. :lol: :lol: After looking at the shovel strap I bet he has both hands holding up his pants now. :wink:

As far as I believe at the time ROPS was introduced they had even stopped making A2s. Somewhere around '78 or so.

Well the fact that he says historically acurate and has it done as a VN erra jeep then a ROPS is not correct.

I would think that maybe with the 416 and if the dummy M16 come with it I would price the vehicle in the 9-10K range because it is uncut. Anyone other opinons?
