Yeah, but look how low the bidding is at the moment. I'd have it for $810 too, the price currently..........Did I really say that? Better go and see a Doctor I think.

yeah i know the dude that owns it and he is a knob! It aint engineered either but it is a fair chick magnet. I seen a couple of broads get excited about being able to "hang" out of it.

OMG It's up to $10000
And I had to laugh at his other auctions he is selling a bulk lot of EA/EB Falcons. I guess I better not hope for to much when I sell mine. :(

While I don't particularly like that one, I do kinda have a hankering for a XY GTrep Vert, I've got a mag from the 80's with a really nicely done one.... and no, I'm not going to chop the roof on my XY...

It has potential. If I rolled my XW I'd think about it, otherwise I couldn't cut up a classic. I'd probably paint it white, bag the suspension, run white walls, and make a fortune at weddings.

wow, i thought u guys had made a typo and ment $1,100, that has to be a joke, its a 250 and 90% complete, would be good but seriously who would own it? it needs a good paint job and some work. I've seen plenty of nice XY/XW's with 351's,9 inch, nice cars,etc for that sort of price, oh well each to there own.
Heres one a bit nicer, also have seen a few very nice ones around.... http://kowboy1.bananaman.com/xycool/

It must be an Adelaide thing because quite a few years ago 10 ish at least, a bloke here kept building shortened (front door only) no roof xw/xy's! They didn't look too bad at the time but on reflection it's something I don't need to see again! I can remember seeing two different cars. I think he also did a hq or statesman as well!
