Yeh I almost bought this one, the owner's very genuine and extremely helpful and there's alot of stuff there for the money. Only reason I didn't get this one was because interstate delivery was going to be difficult but that seems to be addressed now. If only I had 3k to spare a big shed to fit it in... Hopefully it'll find a good home soon that will see the resto through.
Hope so. Solid basis for a rebuild, especially with all those extra parts.
In the end I purchased a local car instead that was meant to be almost drivable... The more I pull it apart the more I can find wrong with it (more work than this car involves!). I'm sure this is a common story though.
Certainly is. I bought mine registered and on the road. Wiring loom from hell (mostly household grade wiring, what wasn't was from a computer), dodgy steering (kinda still is!!), stuffed hydrolics...it goes on and on. Don't forget, we're buying other peoples projects thet either they couldn't follow through, lost interest, or came upon a problem they couldn't afford to fix or didn't know how to. Or simply ran out of money. So in essence we 'inherit' other peoples problems.
