Kevin, there was a stovebolter here that was gathering information on what to look at or consider when buying a panel/surburban. I'm not sure where it is but it may be in the tech tips???
I may have a link somewhere in my message box and if so I will come back here and leave a link. In the meantime I think it was Gmoniz???
Maybe someone else will help.
You can take a look at my photobucket and see my panel. I gave $1500 for it. If the one your looking at is in a dry place and is all there.... and not beat up to bad, its worth the $1000.

oh, the 1/2 ton truck running boards will work on the 1/2 panel.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
