I am selling my Weekend car as I need something that can tow a car around.

I've only had it a few months, I brought it from a guy in VIC and had it trucked over here. The previous owner lowered it on king spring super lows all round. (original springs included with car) Since I've had it, I've given it a full service and tune, fixed an exhaust leak, added the whitewalls and re-claimed SA plates.

Its factory fitted with A/C, (needs condensor) Power steer (works good no leaks) and a factory windback sunroof (NO leaks all winter). It also has also the Ghia goodies, like 10 interior lights, velour seats, tacho dash, alloys etc etc.

The motor runs well, and the trans shifts smoothly, brakes are good, but it rides a bit harsh being lowered.

The body is very straight, only a small ding in the LHF guard that I have pushed out. There is practically NO rust, the paint is original and it has had a few touch ups over the years, although it still polishes up nicely as you can see.

This car just scrapes in for historic rego so would make a good weekender or even a unique daily.


please call 0418187182 or email mhgill@lizzy.com.au as I'm not on here often.
