Got to look it over very little to almost no rust. Looks like it was
driven through the woods a lot from all the scratch down the sides
The best part was when I looked to check the oil and it had no dip stick
but what looked like a glob of jb weld with a drywall screw in it.
so I passed on it. Thanks for all the input

Very good move!

I would have run, and run fast from it when I saw that!

jshillin did not drive it. Did start it sounded good had pressure but the salesman was very stuck on the price and didn't bat an eye at that fact that it didn't have oil dipstick on it and it came in that way so just didn't want to gamble on it. Thanks to all that gave me some input still hunting looking at either an 97 or 03 just have to go look at them both 97 has less milage but the 03 has zero rust and more money lol
