The "red" is wood panels. The truck runs fine but I wanted to disclose all known issues. The previous bidder was indeed a scam artist. Here is the email chain from the previous buyer. As you can see, obvious scam.
I have just made the payments and PayPal emailed me confirming this. So please check your PayPal email address for the Pay Pal confirmation email. PayPal said that they would be holding the money i sent because of the excess payments that i made which was the money for pick up, i will need you to proceed and Wire the excess which is $950.00 to my pick up agent to enable them make a booking for the picked up of the item.Remember that you will wire the agent fee to them via Western Union Money transfer as that is there method of payment.
So please do send the $900 through western union money transfer and use the remaining change of $50.00 as Western Union charges..After you have sent the money please get back to me asap with the western union details, the MTCN number which you will be given by western union after you have sent the money as well as the sender's name and address so i can forward it back to PayPal for your money to be put through or you can email it to PayPal directly,that is alright as well.
Here is my pick up agent's info that you will need to send the money to through western union money transfer:
Name : Jenifer Kirkpatrick
Address: 310 east 2nd ave
City: Big Timber
State: MT
Zipcode:59011
United State.
I will need the address where the item will be picked up,as my pick up agent will contact you to book a pick up time after they have received payments but they will have to book a time that is convenient for you.
Best Regards.
Craig Wood.

Yes, that's fine. Just include the fees with Paypal and give me your pick up agent's contact info. As soon as the payment clears, I will be happy to help. Can you tell me what unit you are in so I can verify that you are a Navy member. Thanks for understanding.
Jason.

> I'm a LCDR with VR-58 in Jacksonville so yes, the item is as described. It is a great buy for the price you spent for it. It does have the minor mechanical issues that I mentioned in the ad but should be easily fixed. I bought the vehicle to play with it but between my real job (FedEx) and the Navy reserve, I have absolutely no time for it. The only thing I didn't mention is that I never registered the vehicle as it's been in my garage since I bought it (I've only driven it around the neightborhood). I do have a previous registration so registering won't be a problem, I just didn't see the point since I am never home. The paypal request is on the way and let me know if you have any other questions.
