That is such good value.
What's the 5% that's missing?
If only I had some spare $$$.
If I weren't so far away, I might have been able to talk myself into buying it.
Good luck with the sale.
Regards
Alex

Gday Alex
It is very good value,this car has had over 18k spent on it over the years.
Shes missing radiator,dizzy,tail lights and interior clock. Needs a buff after badges put back on,carpet fitted properly(all there) and thats pretty much it.
Prob could finish it over a couple of weekends.
Cheers

If you finished it yourself I think you would get a bit more money than you are currently asking and more people to buy who aren't so good at putting things together.

Well, that's my 2 cents.

Paul, thats prob whats going to happen!
Im just scared that if i finish her and drive it for the first time, ill want to keep her.
Not that would be a problem if i had somwhere more permanent to store her.

I would put it this way - if I were closer and the car was finished I would probably bite your hand off at the original 8k. Just sayin'......

Gotta love the suicide doors....  ;D

Paul, i am actually looking for somewhere under cover to store this.
I would of course pay a small monthly fee or what have you.
But im guessing you were kidding right? ::)
Id love to keep her and i would if only i could store it for 12 months or so.
Cheers

Brad,

Have you considered selling it on the OZRodders site? I'm sure there would be greater selling potential offering it to the OZRodder guys.

For what it's worth, I love the car. A steal at $6000. I'd consider it too, if I didn't have grand FC rebuild plans.  :)

Cheers,

Josh

I do have room in my garage, but as I live 500 km south of you distance might be a problem. Have you considered renting a storage shed somewhere?

Cheers
Paul

Paul, rent on a shed is a bit exxy i reckon.
Would love to keep her but just no room.
Cheers

Well done - happy for you but sad I was not closer... Was it a board member here or was it through OZRodders?
