This actually looks really straight and rust free. Assuming the mechanical is all good this might be a brief restoration.

Plateaucal,

You have scored again! First, it is not a 69 which makes it worth much more in my book. It is likely a 66 or 67 based on the dash vents and steering wheel. Based on what I have spent rebuilding these ....$14,500 is a steal for fully functional vintage Patrol.

I agree that this one looks like a winner if it is mechanically equal to its looks.

It's one of those '68-sold-as-a-'69s. Still has the side steps, that's promising.

I spoke to the seller. He is a member on the forum. I recommend here the specifics of his Patrol. We will see.

2 hours from Plano and 5 hours from Boerne. I see a sale.

Not a project for me. I’ll be happy to go look at it and report good/bad if somebody else is interested.

We have seen the machine before. I think about three years ago. If it is mechanically sound, meaning it doesn't need to be rebuilt from the brakes up...it is a reasonable deal. It all just depends on the unseen.
