I saw that and inquired, but the seller wasn't willing to send pictures of the frame at the time. He said it wasn't near his residence or something, and that it would be too much of a hassle to go back and take more pics.
Also, the body is going to require more work than what I would like to do ideally. Maybe I'm being picky, I know, but my skill with rust repair and metalwork in general isn't up to my standards. In other words, I'd have to hire someone to do the body work and I'd rather not have to. I'm not saying I'm unwilling to do some body work, but like anyone I'd rather not have to. I have a good motor and drivetrain, even the axles, so I'm hoping to find just a good body and frame to put it all in. Even a pieced-together jeep would be fine.
I had a deal on a M38A1 going a few days ago, but that fell through when the seller decided to go ahead and sell it to some local who had cash in hand, even after I sent my holding deposit. So he's sending my check back. I hope.

Exactly. I don't want to get into something that I'm going to regret later. The biggest concern I have about being picky, though, is that it dramatically limits my choices. Still, knowing this, I can't help but be picky.
