<VV> Fla. Ultravan (fix it and drive it home????)

You have no idea how far fetched that idea is.  I've looked at this  unit 
twice over the last 5 yrs. and I believe that I am correct in saying that  
driving it would require days and dollars.   Likely, MANY days and  dollars.   
I don't think it's feasible.
 
I sure would like to know what was paid for it since the Seller told me -  
about 4 - 5 yrs. ago that he was firm on $9,000.  At the time, I saw it as  
worth no more than $4,000, but he seemed ready to let it rot rather than 
take  less than $9K.
 
I drove by there about 8 days ago (headed to our favorite Federal Park  
nudie beach) and it was still sitting right where it's been for yrs.
 
Good to hear that someone has the B_ lls to tackle what will surely be a  
project of salt-air rotten metal parts
replacements.  Actually, the main structure seemed pretty much  ok.
