When will folks learn?  It is far less expensive, overall, to buy a 
butter truck and ship it than to buy one close buy and do far more 
structural repairs than the vehicle is worth. 

Ie, you went the wrong direction on your little trip -- don't go east to 
find better bodies, go west -- Ron's rigs were in SE Washington state, 
and were well advertised at the time.  Y'all that wrote them off because 
they were too far away are the losers, as well as the Corvair hobby in 
general.  Crushing structurally good rigs is still not uncommon out this 
way 'cause one can't store them all.

Similarly, Joe Amador, although in SF, sounds like he needs to look a 
little more to find a better hulk than the one for which he wants a roof.
