For anyone that wants to know why she's for sale
Plane was to enjoy it until my garage was complete then let the cut and shut begin
But I have come to appreciate her for what she is a sold clean unmolested car (minus paint)
So the hunt for and less original package is in the cards once she sell

Nice old girl, John.

Obviously you've thought about cutting her up - better to start with a known, solid vehicle than a car that may look okay, but turn into a basket case the deeper you dig.

I've spent a heap of cash fixing the mistakes and quick bodgy jobs of the previous owners.

know of 3 clean shells for sales,
you know the ones someone else has already dropped big $$$ into,
just don't have the 5 figures most are asking for them,
+ the one I'm keen on was already engineered many years ago with blown v8
witch is near impossible to do in vic now days

be carefull  if its anything like here as long as its still registered everythings hunky dory .
If its out of rego with the new system a new owner will have to re engineer .possibly but a very slim chance that the person who owned it on the engineers cert might get it regoed

I had a few nasty SMS from a guy being a tool.
I put on gumtree a free kayak with his phone number. Took 30 minutes for the guy to go spastic claiming he had about a hundred SMS and phone calls in that time. I told him to bugger off and stop being a troll.  He went to the cops... I'm sure he'll pay for a lawyer over $50 engine covers!



john253a

That's a good
I had heaps with mine
But everytime I made changes and it went to the top of page I get the SMS from an email
Trying to scam me
