If the one last week nearly $10K, I can't wait to see what this one goes
for... pretty much a mint survivor.

It does look pretty solid, Lee, but the tracks would have to be
exceptionally well-preserved to still be fit for use.

He does say the engine's seized. Could be that something else went
wrong with the driveline, and the engine was allowed to rust up.

Looks like it has met reserve, and will sell. Glasgow, Montana is only
about a 3 hour drive from my home, and if I were at home now, I'd
enjoy going down to look at it on behalf of any NGer that might be
interested.

I don't know the seller, but I do know folks that know him. That's all
I will say.

That Weasel is probably worth the current bid, just in terms of
completeness alone, but I expect you'd have to to renew/replace damn
near everything to make it show quality. Museum quality doesn't mean
much, as plenty of museums are full of unrestored vehicles. Even
making it a driver could run into a lot more work than it might appear
to be on the surface.

What are weasels worth today?  What would a decent one in working order
go for?  I'd kind of like to get one to drive around.  Are parts still
available?

Offhand, I'd say an operable Weasel will fetch upwards of $5000, maybe
less if it's been badly modified. For various reasons, military
vehicles seem to suffer a lot of major modifications when they fall
into civilian hands. You see Weasels with doors and tailgates, for
example, weakening the hull.

Here is a site with a Weasel forum. You may learn a lot here, and find
links to other sites of interest:
