buying a sammy?

What do ya need to look out for when buying a sammy?

How should it feel when you drive etc... noises, handling yada. If I find one local in good nick i want to know :idea:  :twisted:

Baby_Rhino:
RUST!  :twisted:

zippy:
rust on bodywork i ain't really worried about, I'd do a crash course in welding and cut out and put in new plates in. Also why you need a good paint finish? I could do a rivet and hand paint job like LR's ;)

What else.

Mart:
check behind the plastic arches and skirts if possible, the obv ones like blue smoke etc still count, rides a fair bit bumpy to say the least, if its your first 4x4 it'll sound strange as you get the drivetrain noise, if it doesnt tick over well the carbs probably nacked (notorious problem on 413's) give it a rock from side to side and listen if the shox sound ok.

there will be quite a bit of play in the steering thats normal and can be adjusted slightly, other than that its a fun car to own and drive.

hope ya find a good un

zippy:
prob is all the good body ones are down south. Not around the north.
