So this past Saturday I retrieved this 127 as pictured. 375 miles one way and $137 in gasoline.
It had been listed on CL for two weeks or so with a phone number and "taking bids" in the description.
Being it was 375 miles away, I did not bother to call. After 2 weeks he updated the ad with some more pictures. I then saw things I wanted to put on my unrestored, ugly but operational 127. So I then called and asked him what amount he was hoping for that would make him happy.
He said $200 and I said sold, and I sent him a $50 deposit via paypal.
I tried to get him to strap it to a pallet and drop it off at a Fastenal store about 8 miles from his house but he would not.
So I spent all day on the road to go get it home.
The reason for the $200 price is due to the new window in the engine block in behind the starter-generator.
In case you ever wanted to know.....yes a 127 with 42" deck installed will fit into a first generation Tahoe!. But you have to remove the steering wheel.
