That's great, a brilliant example of maintained not restored.

What a beauty, would love to own that.

To ship that here from a place in California that is a direct route to Newcastle in a container is between 3,000-4,000 per car mate.

Wait... $16,900 is cheap for the condition it's in?

Yes, it's got a 302 and it's a manual and it's a ute, however... Did no one else see the bubbling rust?

As much as I still like the car, it's valued oddly for what you get here. Plus it's missing the bonnet/boot letter badges... looks rice without them, IMO.

EDIT: Probably only a 'bargain' if you're in America... at that rate I'd still find it hard to call it a bargain though.
