mikeylikesit Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 I just bought my 2nd (ever) 620 yesterday and am going to start restoring it a little. I thought that since I'm going to be lurking around here a lot and checking out your posts for help during my project I thought I would at least say hi. As soon as I figure out how to post pics on this forum, I'll post some. Quote Link to comment

Eagle_Adam Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 details? 5speed? L20? Plans? Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Four speed, IIRC this was on the portland craigslist for some time. Guy was asking 600, non runner. Quote Link to comment
mikeylikesit Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 izzo you are correct. I picked it up for $450. Quote Link to comment
mikeylikesit Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Plans: 1) get it running 2) get it to stop 3) ??? It's an L16 You guys are way more experienced than I am right now, good deal or way overpriced? I didn't think it was too much to pay, especially since I love the 620 (it was my very first rig I ever bought)! 1 Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 hows the rust/rot on it? Quote Link to comment
mikeylikesit Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 There's a little on both front fenders and a good size chunk on the passenger side wheel well, by the battery. It has a little surface rust on the floorboards, but everything else looks pretty solid. The passenger side front fender has a dent, but everything else is pretty straight. Since I live at the beach, I'm going to start working on stopping the rust and patching right away. Quote Link to comment

Datto510 lives there, but hes hardly EVER home. Thanks izzo. You had me worried! lol. If I get up that way I'll look you up. Those are my old stomping grounds, well actually Nehalem and Manzanita, but my grandfather used to sell the ceramic and concrete seagulls (and other statuary stuff) at the intersection of 26 and 101 (next to to the old LOG auto yard).

Thanks for the info. According to the kid I bought it from, it doesn't have power to the coil. I haven't done anything but drool over it yet! I'll check out the tech section for sure! Thank you!

izzo Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 well, 450 for a non runner, i dont see how thats a bad deal really. You could part it out and make that back if anything else. It looks pretty straight, too. I dig!! Bet it won't take much to get this thing going. I might have the info the PO sent me in email still. Quote Link to comment
Project Bandwagon Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 $450 isn't too bad, especially if the floors are in decent shape Quote Link to comment
mikeylikesit Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 $450 isn't too bad, especially if the floors are in decent shape Floors are in really good shape! One spot on the passenger floor, but it doesn't feel thin. The window was down, so there was some sitting water. Quote Link to comment
Zeusimo Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Nice Score!! I Really Like That Interior :) Oh Yeah...Bigger Oics!!! Quote Link to comment
521chowda Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Yay! 450 isn't a bad deal, looks good :cool: Soooo as far as plans go you plan on getting it running, cleaning her up and putting around with your arm hanging out the window? ;) Sweet deal Quote Link to comment
