Tempted by this nice looking G-Wagen...

Ok -

Here I go again... sorry about another rambling post about my search for an expedition vehicle. I've seen enough abused and overpriced Land Cruisers, boring Jeeps (sorry Tyler) and plain 4Runners.

Came accross this beautiful G-Wagen on expeditionportal.com:

If you can't see the portal without registering here is the ad for it on CL:

I like everything about the vehicle and it's even close to my price range ($11K).... spoke with the owner earlier today and he'd be willing to entertain $11+something... The only problem is: RUST. This truck has some - the pics shown reveal some rust in the floor boards under the driver's seat and around the tail lights there is some surface rust. He didn't show the pics underneath (maybe too scary?!).

Anyway - I know the rust is bad I just wonder if this one may be worth saving and repairing or am I gonna loose my a$$ on it?!

You've got to admit that Lapis Blau is a nice color on it... Please talk me out of this truck... I respond well to big$$$ spent - I'm fairly cheap.
