After all the fanfare and B/S of getting hold of the van I really wanted, I am (reluctantly) offering it for sale.
AS R/B said "how am I going to get my bike in the back"? and now having a straight and virtually rust free very straight EK ute as a hauler the van, as nice as it is, can't stay and having it outside will do it no favours either! If I had the space I would definitely keep it but fact remains I don't.
I've asked around and have set a base price of $7600 but am not wanting it to go on the evilbay circus yet to aim for more etc. so am putting it on here first for the true believers. I will only deal with serious inquiries and those who can be bothered to come and have a look. The van is in Sydney's Northwest.
The body is pretty fine and rust minimal , but for the following;
Slight waviness where moulding holes have been filled (with bog I suspect - and will confirm)
Small rust (bog 'repair') at the bottom of N/S dogleg, rest appears good but will not say more - YOU need to be the judge.
Two side windows have been fitted
Small rust at bottom of a pillar gutters
Wiring is a nightmare!
Original bench seat isn't fitted (has some other buckets - Commodore?)
Rear arches have been rolled and pumped (have seen better)
Bumper has shit (new) and already rusty chrome, ditto lower grill section - both will re-chrome OK
Average paint-job in acrylic
Car has the following with etc's.........
179 engine with electronic ignition, extractors and new exhaust, Holley 350 on Redline manifold, M20 driving through a Torana rear end. Runs but will need a tune
Thermo fan (can't remember the condition of radiator)
HR disc front end and VH40 booster
Hotwires with good to new rubber (love em or hate em - although they don't look too bad on the van I reckon) 14 rear, 13 front plus two other 14 with tyres and two 13 rims only
New rubbers throughout
Sports steering wheel
Still has firewall body plate intact.
Back interior is intact and OK. I managed to get a set of closing panels which were missing, along with a shop manual, and factory parts manual.
