I've wanted one of these since I was 18 or so, but I'm not entirely sure what I'd do with it.
Seriously though, you could always go and check it out with a mechanic. Then if it's a decent eg, tune the engine as the seller recommends to make sure it runs, and just put it into dry storage somewhere until you have a use.
Assuming the bottom doesn't fall out of the vintage car market the worst case is you sell it in 10yrs for what you paid for it having never used it.
I can relate, as I'd love one of these:
...but that's mainly because I have fond memories of working in a rain forest in Costa Rica, and driving up and down the river bed in one.

Maybe I was a bit hasty last night, re-reading it today.

Knowing me, I'd pour thousands of pounds into it to make it the best example I could, whilst driving it very little.
I do think it'd look cool with a TDF style big bike rack mounted on the bed.
