    What Would You Pay?

    So that means full brake service ( pull tires, drums ) for inspection , plus all new wheel seals and any brake parts it needs . For that price it should be roadworthy. It is not hard to stick a grand into brakes. A good thread on costs; cost of ownership (the real cost of a deuce)

    What Would You Pay?

    Sounds a little high with "raccoon damage " . Does it have a title in the owners name ? Do the brakes work , sitting tends to be hard on them. There are a couple listed in the classifieds for similar prices around columbus oh.

    Engines in the CUCV?

    The GM small block gas engines had similar problems but the crack was between the lifter blocks . Lousy engineering and the need to cut weight for fuel standards the cheapened up the blocks to near garbage .

    restocking fee

    Did they give you the part you requested or give you a different part than you requested ? If you ordered ( or told them the wrong part ) you should pay it . If it was on their end they exchange for the correct part without fees , just the correct price difference.

    M35A2 Brake Issues

    Fairly common problem . You may be able to bleed it and get them to work . But I wouldn't trust them without a complete inspection , wheel cylinders tend to leak after sitting . When was the last brake inspection / service done to it ? ( remove drums , lines , inspect all parts ) ect.
