I have looked inside every one of them. The trucks came from Illinois. They are muddy because when they loaded them on the trucks the fields in Illinois where wet.

Of the ones I tried to start, the batteries where dead. Most of them are in rough shape. ALL of them where loaded and unloaded with a forklift. They all have "some" body damage because of this. Most have drive shaft damage also.

Since they came from Illinois they have been exposed to salt and moisture. Cancer is lurking...

I do not remember specifics about any of them, but I will say this.......

I was looking at these also and Being from the rust belt myself I was quick to notice most of the ones I seen on GL had rot in tailgate directly below window crank witch means gate is roted inside and floors are more than likley roted out among other things.
once again BUYER BEWARE!!!!
