I picked off a couple seared parts today but not a lot of meat left on this
1990 bone.
If someone needs swivel seat bases, those are still good. I'd buy one for
$50 if someone wants to pull them.
The cabinet between stove and back cabinet looks usable. The water tank is
there but someone took the top and sender. The poptop MAY be usable with
some work. The rear seat base board looks good. Z-Bed hinges must still be
there. The stainless steel stove top looks useable. At least one of the
black trimmed sliding windows (that accept screens) looked useable but might
need new glass. Almost everything that didn't burn (and that was almost
everything) has been stripped out. But I got a couple things that made the
trip worthwhile.
