Should I buy this?
Ive got a chance to buy a 1999 Melex, has a roof, pretty stock, its got good batteries just need a charge, good charger, and everything is fine, no rust, and it needs a good clean up but thats it, the guy wants 75 dollars, im probably gonna buy it, but just want some advise! Thanks!

Buy it if you just want to run it..... do not plan on buying any lift kits or aftermarket stuff for it. It just not out there...... some generic stuff can be made to fit and you can custom make stuff .... but be advised as to the lack of aftermarket accessories.

No, it runs around, they just didnt charge it for week or so, its just not quick, they were driving it a few weeks ago fast, they just said they havent driven it much since then but i drove it, works fine.

The only thing bad about Melex is they quit making them about 1999 and no parts are available for them.

For 75 Bucks, you can't go wrong-you could get $100 to scrap it.
I'd bring it home,charge it & throw a sign on it for $500 & see what happens. |
