    Maybe the starter he means is an accelerant?

    Does it come with the guy trying to hold the bent prop shaft in?

    At least it comes with a block of firewood.

    Sorry, another tin top, but a worthy candidate none the less....

    I fail to see where is the value in this heap of shite......... Wreckers would probably only pay him $400 to haul it away and crush it.

    Worth 4k... Tops. Even then I would be weary of the work standard.
    Jesus!
    Classic case of someone trying to get the money they sunk into a vehicle back.

    8-10K tops if running. But there seems to be no motor or box included in this scam.

    I'd gladly pay big $$$ for the Group A Brock SS. (These are nice by the way). But this is a bog stock run of the mill VK Commy which now looks like a POS

    With no cert (looks like dodgy work to me) and paint job?6K Maaaaybe. I figure a couple of grand in body work needed, plus cert will cost a minimum of $400 from memory, but could cost a lot more if they don't like the work that has been done. But i know very little about these cars, was a Jap man when I was into cages.

    Scam indeed, I imagine he was on whatever his substance of choice is when he posted that listing.

    Aren't they all just taxis from the 80s and 90s? Think there was a race series where you had to get your fares home of an early Saturday morning before they lost their kebab in the back seat all over a Sharron or a Tracey .
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    They have their place, but I wouldn't start with that bike.
