66 Buffalo Mesa 10 Hour drive

[Trailman]

There is a 66 Buffalo Mesa for sale, needs rescuing, owner has tried to get it a good home for 8 months now.
All original, old canvas is there for patterning, no papers.
Problem for me is its in Upper New York State, 10 hours each way for me.
Would you drive 10 hours to rescue one?
Did it before, not sure if I am up for it this time, anyone out there closer want to buy it, I will send the details.
Too good to let it become a utility trailer.
Owner is only asking $300 USD

I uploaded the pics to my album 66 Buffalo Mesa.
I think its well worth saving, all original and all there waiting for some TLC

That's really cool. I'd go for it but I'm in Utah.

They are nice, I always liked the layout, aluminum roof and no complicated lift system, funny they only made them a few years.
They had the rubber torsion axles though, I had a 10 ft Boler with that axle design and did not like the way it towed.
The Buffalo Mesa is a lot lighter than the fibreglass Boler and less top heavy so maybe no problem.
Anybody have problems with the torsion axles? If I go get it I would have to tow it 10 hours all highway.
