Hi all,
Unfortunately I'm moving overseas again and my ute will have nowhere to live.
I love it, the kids love it and everyone who sees it loves it too.
58 FC Ute in Skyline Blue, fully restored by Fast Eddie in the not too distant past. Warm Grey, HR front end.
Full details and photos from Fast Eddies original sales pitch are here

Ute has only travelled 300 miles since I bought it, and lives in a garage the rest of the time.
I have added a jack and spare rim (no tyre on it yet!), and replaced the master cylinder (which had a small leak).
Fast Eddies side exit pipes had to go to get it registered in Tassie (now a 2 into 1). Think they still may be around somewhere....
$17500 firm.
I'm not in Oz at the moment so pm me if you have further questions.
Dunno how to post a recent photo yet......

If its done 300 miles since you bought it then its done 314 miles since we finished building it ;D
We put lots of work into this car, and heaps of NOS and fully restored bits were used. A very nice "buy and drive" ute.
Good luck with the sale. Someone is going to get a real good car.
If I owned a ute like that I wouldn't be going anywhere
Thanks for the comments guys.
Really would prefer to keep it, but since the house is also on the market, it has nowhere to stay.
Having said that, I've had lots of offers from people willing to "look after it". ;)
Of course, I can't trust any of them!
Where abouts is the ute located???
Ute is in Devonport Tasmania.
That's where the ferry leaves from to go to Melbourne.
Hmm, thought I might get a bit more interest than this....
That is very similar to mine and I have mine in Ireland - why don't you take it with you. You'll have a ball driving it around a different country. How far do you have to go?
I've seen pics of the one in Ireland.
Don't think I'd have much luck getting the ute registered in Korea though.............
Korea - it would qualify as a fully usable articulated lorry there! 26 people and chickens along with the years harvest for the market and a few goats on the roof! You could start a business there with it! How long are you going there for?

Congrats to Andy in Canberra.
