Ah yes. The dreaded emissions worry. Glad I don't have to deal with that down here.

Re: Looking for a vehicle for a DD - more unique the better!
A little above your price range, but I think the turbo boost feature might be worth it. http://cosprings.craigslist.org/cto/4334134269.html

That Anglia would be very unique and useful.
Plus, you could pretend you are on Chico and the Man.

Re: Looking for a vehicle for a DD - more unique the better!
I didn't want to say anything cause you guys are finding awesome stuff and I didn't want it to end. I promised my wife I wouldn't buy another project until I replace her car with "not a project" aka. Something new or nearly new.
Doesn't mean I won't jump in something anyway and stash it at a friends house. But for the next few months I'm in lock down :(

Re: Looking for a vehicle for a DD - more unique the better!
Those econoline pickups have a 90" wheelbase. Might be good for a Bronco frame/drivetrain swap.

There is an old FC Jeep by Zack's place I believe, I don't think his neighbor would sell it.

Re: Looking for a vehicle for a DD - more unique the better!
Two of them actually. The first is owned by a guy with 4 Toyotas and a Super Duty. The second is parked just up the hill alongside a couple of other projects that appeared to have petered out.
