wanted REPU northeast
I am looking for a REPU in the northeast.I am willing to even travel or have it shipped but just can't find one around here.I don't even care if it runs or even has an engine,but the body has to be decent and the interior has to be intact.Thanks.I am even willing to trade my 83 limited edition RX-7 for one.

Shipped from how far?
More specifically, what's your definition of 'decent'... I take it you're prepared to prevent the rust-meltdown scenario your part of the nation is know for... Any hints as to your 'decent' shell purchase budget, prior to shipping? All of the above kinda data will help to enable options...

As far as decent I mean I want a truck that is not something that i will have to look all over the world for misc parts like bumpers,lights,grill,trim,etc.I can take care of body work even but little things bug me.Interior wise I don't want some truck that has been bastardized or torn up but it doesn't by any means have to be perfect.I wouldn't worry too much about salt and such eating away at the truck because I wouldn'y use it during the winter and have a garage for it.This would be another toy for the summer or a vehicle to replace my 83 RX-7 LE.Thanks for the quick reply.Let me know if any of you guys know of one in my area.I am even up to some travel.I bought my current daily driver tow vehicle in Michigan and that was pretty far away from Cape Cod Massachusetts.

If you never want to have to search for parts...
...definitely don't get a REPU! Far too rare, especially for certain 'crash parts'--as you might already be noticing... No offense, but I wouldn't expect anyone to want to trade for your seven, either...unless, perhaps, the REPU is a total project...
There are a few members of this board located a whole lot closer to you, though, than I...and who knows, they may know of something at some point...? Kansei is in Michigan, for example... He's planning a trip out west, ostensibly to try to relieve me of some of my collection, among other things...
Consider that even were budget issues of no consequence, and you accquired a pristine example of a REPU, should the situation/need for certain parts ever arise, well...
Best of luck to you, regardless! --K.

Thanks for the input.I don't mind searching for parts but I don't want to buy a truck that needs everything.Just a good basic truck that can be worked with not a basket case.I wasn'y really expecting anyone to trade but thought I would offer it up anyway.I think a trip out west or down south may be in the future.I really want one and would be willing to travel pretty far.
