Prospective buyers should carefully review the severe condition limitations of this asset before considering a bid. This vehicle spent its entire operational life serving as a beach trash collection truck. Due to decades of direct, daily exposure to saltwater, sea air, wet sand, and corrosive organic waste, the vehicle suffers from extensive, deep structural and cosmetic rust. The undercarriage, frame rails, rocker panels, and body panels show advanced deterioration and significant oxidation. Mechanically, the vehicle is in highly degraded condition. It operates poorly and currently will not pass California smog certification. The engine and exhaust systems require substantial, costly repairs to meet state emissions standards. No diagnostic troubleshooting or mechanical repairs will be performed by the city. This vehicle is being sold strictly "AS-IS, WHERE-IS." The City of Capitola offers no warranties, guarantees, or representations of any kind regarding its safety, roadworthiness, or operational capacity. Extensive remediation, rust mitigation, and mechanical overhaul are required to make this vehicle legally operational. Bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the vehicle in person to understand the severe extent of the damage before placing a bid. Towing or flatbed transport will be required for removal upon purchase.
