Ok its a Manual single range 5spd AWD 3.7 and diff lock. Heavy duty suspension and shocks. It handles like a Gokart through corners. the motor is good condition and is a spider manifold the body is average. Theres rust in the sun roof and in the front sub frame. The rust is easy fixed in the frame and the sun roof is sealed up. the other things to fix are the power window on the passenger door and the high beam switch on the headlights. the interior is in good condition and yes Guy its a lovely shade of blue lol. the general condition of the car is great for a rolling project> Im serious to sell to try and get this before he sells it. http://perth.gumtree.com.au/c-Cars-Vehi ...

That woman wants $1500 for it. I don't think its lic, Smashed rear windscreen and water has socked the whole car since it started raining and mould has started to grow. Thats was a month ago.Would need a whole new interior. And as you remember the trap covering it was full of holes:( I never was able to start it and it has quite a bit of rust. I offered up to $1000 and she said no:(

I'm not that desperate to buy junk:) LOL i sometime do tho, hehe

I only buy good, reasonable, lic $100 vortex's HEHEHEHE:P
