Cathys' "UGLY duckling" is for sale (kind of, almost, maybe, reluctantly)
If somebody gives me $5,000 ( NOT negotiable) i will probably let it go to a good home (and they MUST promise to bring it to the Nats in 2012 !
)
it's NOT really pretty
it's got some rust
the gardening stuff isn't included
but all the rubbish is
it looks a lot nicer on the photo
It's not called UGLY for nothing
I got someone to show me how to open the bonnet for this photo
(have always wondered what a 179 motor looks like
)
its got the 179, 4speed manual, HR front, disc brake front (HR ?). drum rear (EH?), rusty,leaks,scratched windscreen, mouldy rotten roof lining, 14'' ugly volvo rims, short studs on rear wheels (?!?!),pissy little steering wheel,on short column, Its got a radio with 50 wires hanging out the rear and 10 wires hanging from the dash ..you figure it out...i gave up trying !
But she's fully licenced and runs really well. I use it on a regular basis ( especially when it rains cos the wagon hasnt got wipers). Just dont use it as much as i should and she sits still to long and i cant afford to do up 2 cars
Be good to see it turn up to a club run all prettied up and turned into a BEAUTIFUL swan. ( MY grand plan was to have it LOW and black with a touch of red & white flame work on it)
will send you an email
