Brumbys have always cost heaps for what they are, I've wanted one since before my wagon and they're still about the same price now as they were then.

$7000 is a fair price for a rust free Brumby in WA. I wouldn't pay that for any other pre-Liberty Subaru unless it was an immaculate EJ conversion or something.

Yeah $7000 is definitely worth it for a good Brumby. Nobody in their right mind would spend that on any other pre-EJ Suby like...say....an L series.
(oh they would for a Hatch of course!)

Remember you can get em cheeper - 1 of the WA crew recently did AND that was dealer prices - always expect to pay a bit more. The bonus is for that price she will have a warrantee as well so the first x amount of km's and/or months are golden so try n kill it.
Toyota 105 Series LandCruiser (that nobody on here wants to really hear about).
RX Touring Wagon - fitted out for 4WDing (currently collecting dust).
RX Project - will be road only at this stage (and currently taking way to long to finish).

saw a really nice late red one at 4,300 and then it was gone ! Previous owner of my 92 model coulda sold it a few times over. Went to look at the one above to resell, but toooo late ! The canopy is worth 2k to buy new. ten bucks used !!

Know of any around Perth for ten bucks? Could be time to cover the Brumbino's shameful nakedness, could get in the way of the custom kayak racks though.

yeah, you watch the prices in next couple of years, it'll go up.
I am hoping to find an Brumby as collectors item someday real soon.
