Post by dansawmill »

Looking for a stage 1 station wagon as a restoration project to compete with my son. Would consider anything that runs and has all/most parts. Budget of up to £12k ish ! Dan

I doubt you'll get cheaper than $32.

Is $32 too much for him?

Still not too bad for parts at $3200. A few missing bits plus what ever buggery was done for the LPG conversion.

99 cents, what a bargain.

Apparently the other one has gone off ebay now.

The guy looking at it said the owners where somewhat shady and had a few big dogs in the yard.

You could always buy this one and convert to a wagon https://www.classicdriver.com/en/car/la ... 982/500826

Thought that was pretty good till they showed the pictures of it in pieces. Love how they repainted the bulkhead with all the minor fittings still in place. So you remove the hand throttle plastic plug and you have a bright red ring. I'd be expecting just a little better for the price, including the original Masai Red. I'd rather buy the $32 car from the Sudanese gang members and keep the other 67000 euros.
This does reinforce the viability of buying OS from a low value market such as Australia and shipping it almost anywhere else in the world.

Yes that's a hell of a lot of money for a not perfect resto job. I know of about 4 or 5 Aussie Stage Ones in the US now.
