I bought mine, with badly warped head, no key, few dents, faded paint, no bling, with a craig 2 shaft radio thats loud as hell for $50 (the other $250 i paid was kinda profit money from other deal)
i would get the bagged one ofcourse. first off you know the guy. its already bagged. just find a motor and tranny. could have that and still be right around a grand
