So there's an ST185 All Trac in my area for not a lot of money. I've wanted one, but I'm unsure of what kind of work goes into bringing one back. http://lubbock.craigslist.org/cto/3891320785.html Here's the ad. Any advice is appreciated.

I'd just be afraid of Joe Smoe and what his "rebuild" consisted of. Yeah be prepared for the worst though: needing an ECU, harness, engine, and transmission. Is there even any paperwork of the rebuild? For what you could end up spending on the car, and then all of the parts/work that might be needed. Might as well just buy one that's already working. I've seen them in nice working shape for around 5K or less. Also there's the ST165. I can't remember which of the two it was, I want to say the ST165, had a lever that'd put the transmission into FWD. Very nice to have for highway cruising.
