What to look at when buying 1988 Max II

[Durwood]

Hi everyone, I am new here and love the site. I will be looking at a 1988 Max II and was just wondering what I should be looking for ie: wear and tear ect. What I do know is: Max II, 1988 and they are asking $2500. Thanks for your help in advance, sorry for no more info. Thanks Durwood.

Hey Durwood, welcome to the Site.

Without going into a long discussion, your best place to start, is here: http://www.6x6world.com/forums/conte...r-s-guide.html
I think the most important thing to do, is to get all 6 wheels off the ground and spin the tires, after taking the floor pan and the engine cover off. It's hard to do in a buying atmosphere, but it'll give you more information about the machine right then, that you may not want to find out AFTER you buy it. Spin stuff, look for slop, noise, wear, etc. Unless the machine is in very nice shape, and very well maintained, $2500 is a bit on the high end (my opinion) for a 1988. Get more information on it, and maybe more folks can lend their opinion...
