I saw that. Crazy. Makes me want to buy this:

Seems like a screaming deal. Hope someone off here can grab it up.

The rarer and cleaner they are, the more valuable. I've been restoring old Scouts for a few years now and they just keep going up every year. It's nice to see people appreciate quality over newness.

Yes it is a great looking camper and looks to be in great shape I was really shocked that someone would pay that much with out looking at it. I would sell mine in a heart beat for half that.

Fishing was great we had a blast. We went out to the Belfair area.

It depends. The better prices seem to come for "clean" stock ones. The most bang for the buck parts of the restorations are removing any rust (mostly rocker panels and floors) and un-doing any "modifications" previous owners have made. Clean body and fresh paint doubles the price. The 800 model is the most sought after. You could contact IH Only in Grass Valley CA as they do restorations and resales and might be interested-
