I bought this at a local university auction and I have 2 golf carts and a side by side already so I don"t need it but the price was right. I brought it home put a new battery in it, drained the tank, checked the fluids and it started right up. Would make an excellent utility vehicle for a farmer or landscaper and could even be fun to just tooly around a large property in. These are work horses I have seen them with 100,000 miles and still going. This one has less than 12,000 miles but the Arizona sun is getting to this paint and interior. It is not bad, the seats are great, dash is faded, paint is chipping and some surface rust has started but a little paint would go a long way with this vehicle. If I do not sell it in a couple weeks I will throw on some paint and try again. This is a left hand drive USA model with governor limiting it to 25 MPH. They drive these in Japan at 65+ MPH though. I listed it as a 1992 because the book I got with it was published in 1992 it could be newer or older by a couple years and the various info plates on the vehicle are kinda confusing so I left the vin# out of the listing. But with that said all the plates are still installed and I do think it is a 1992 I just did not want to find out it was a 91" or 93" and have a buyer complain about it. I think the person buying this vehicle won"t care because they just want it. Lets go over the goods then bads
OK VEHICLE WILL BE PAINTED BY MONDAY CHECK BACK FOR UPDATED PICS. I HAD NEARLY 500 VIEWERS ON THIS BUT NO SALE. I THINK PAINT WILL HELP. IF YOUR INTERESTED AND BUY NOW YOU CAN PICK THE COLOR HURRY OR IT IS WHITE.

@@@@@@@(UPDATE ALERT I HAVE THE TITLE NOW SO LET THE OFFERS FLY!)@@@@@@@
UPDATE IT IS WHITE AND LOOK WHAT SOME PAINT DID FOR THIS UGLY-DUCKLING LOL. Now the paint isn"t perfect but she looks good from 10-20 feet away. I pounded out some of the dings and sanded the surface rust as well as any areas I felt needed it, then laid down some good old Rustoleum Paint, Gloss White in fact. I am pleased with it but don"t think your buying a show truck it was painted at night with bugs flying into every light I used to see and it was painted start to finish in 4 hours by me and my kids. With that disclaimer like I said I am pleased with how it looks and think it was money well spent.
GOODS:
Extremely reliable vehicle Started right up and drives effortlessly at 25 MPH.Most of the original parts are there and do not look to be terribly altered or worked on.Gets great gas mileage from a 660cc engine with under 12,000 miles. Came from local university auction so probably maintained well.Transmission is 3spd with rev shifts good no issuesFresh coat of white paint looks good from 10-20 feet away Has a title so taking it to Mexico or anywhere else is not an issue.
BADS:
Some of the plastic parts are beaten up by the sun.A couple of the tires are pretty bald and will need replacing soon. Doesn"t meet federal safety or emission requirements to be driven on public roads which is why it only goes 25 MPH and will need OHV registration if your gonna drive it off road etc.
This is definitely a vehicle no one on your block owns and is a great little truck with a cult following for whatever reason.
PLEASE ANY QUESTIONS ASK AND I WILL TRY TO ANSWER THEM THX FOR LOOKING AND HOPEFULLY BUYING!
