WHere'd the other 4 go? Or maybe it was in the description but I can't surf ebay on this work computer---damn filters!

The description in the listing says that there were 5 total: the hardtops (2) went to collectors back East, 1 sold on Ebay & 1 was painted back to sand.

If anyone wants me to check it out let me know. I live in santa clarita, this place might be 10 miles away if its the place I am thinking of. Huge dirt lot with army vehicles used in movies. They have the big duece and a halfs and all that other cool stuff.

Yeah that is a pretty good deal. I want to bid, but I think it would be better for Dave. All I would do is try to restore it and then sell it to get me some more money for a newer Hummer.:)

Looks like a fun project. Doubt you can make money on it. By the time you restore it you likely will have as much or more in it than you can sell it for.

I think the bid ended. I called to go down to the place where they had the H1 so I could tell dave how it was in person and they wouldnt let me go and see it. I think they were hiding something especially seeing some of the pictures of the rear looked a bit out of whack. Bent bumper or tub?

They didn't respond to my e-mail and wouldn't let Chris come see the truck and they were selling it "As Is". Lots of red flags. It appeared to me that the tub was tweaked and I wanted Chris to check it out. When they refused to let anyone in to see the truck I dropped out. A new tub runs about 15K.

Either that or when the buyer showed up and looked at it and told them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine. Seems to confirm my suspicion on its condition.

I think they are hoping someone will buy it and not come to see it. Isn't there a comment in the listing we can arrange shipping? The first you would know if there is a problem is when it rocks up on your doorstep.

I talked / messaged the guy, and he tells me it is in "perfect" condition. So I asked if I could send somebody to see it and he says " No pre-inspections. It is in perfect condition, and you dont need to waste your money on the inspector. Plus, I do not have the time to allow someone to look at it, unless they are coming to buy it. "

You can see in the picture it is in far from perfect condition. If it was so nice they would want to show it so people would bid appropriately for a "perfect" truck. Smells like a scam arrangement. Chock is right. Truck shows up on your doorstep 1500 miles away and what do you do?

And I am wondering how this guy has 100% positive feedback!
