I finally got hold of it. The lot purchase came with other parts i needed. Now to find a good home for the Landjump.

Its mostly complete, radio gear cover not present, one spring missing. I may try locate a replacement. Tires are surprisingly good for a 45 year old model, a few cracks, but still shelf worthy.
The motor has good compression, I am most surprised by this. It may even fire up, I'm tempted to give it a go before selling.
I had thoughts of a full rebuild and then to hang onto it. But i have too many other rabbit holes and i feel like this would end up being a really deep one.

Asking $500 negotiable, substantially less than the last few "well used" examples I've seen listed. Postage on buyers dime. The usual, I'm not looking to get rich, I would rather someone gets some joy out of it.

The tank inlet and outlets need to be sealed so it has sufficient back pressure from the exhaust to carry on running. But yes, it will run. Transmission is good. Bluegoodness
