sorry not interested in the golf.
offers are welcome, but this rig is too good for stupid "give ya twenty bucks" stuff! she makes guys with sweet splitty's interested which is an indication of quality!
[could even look at swapsy's for a splitty if anyone wants]

these are one of the best designed kombi's around and no one wants one! what has the world come too? might have to keep her! lower her and get some 16 " rims for her!!! that would be the business!

How many K's on the clock both engine and vehicle. ie since engine rebuild or new power plant installed. What does "1776 big fat" mean. In lay terms what's the engine size and gearbox. What is their condition. Not now, but could I have a look at some interiors some time in the near future.

Mate id fly over and take it off ya hands no probs (thanks for sending the pics to) but I was relying on money from my house but as usuall the bank has under valued it and I have just enough to finish it of I was hoping for 10 more grand and pic this up off ya but they won't come to the party.
I do love it though

thanks for the replys guys! got a few people lookin this weekend so we will see what happens! the motor aint that old. was rebuilt by a guy before me that hadnot even run it in and then i freshened it up , put the alternator on it and the exhaust system and the oil cooler, then fitted it up! i have done about 20 thou in it and done a valve adjustment every 5 thou with an oil change at the same time. 1600 gearbox is good with a spare 2 ltr to come with it as an up grade if the 2 ltr ever falls over!
hope this all helps!

still on the market, had 3 guys booked in to look and only one turned up [typical byron] so second chances guys! make an offer on this special girl. the guy who did turn up was cool but wanted a 76 instead. i prefer the earlier shape and with the 72's you get the best of both worlds! early shape and late running gear!
so who is up to it?

yeah, gave her legs a stretch. what were you in, didn't see the ute? got the message and happily passed it on to the test pilot.! surprised he didn't grab it. he kept saying 'drives great, handles well' 'good floor pan''looks like a good rig', then, nah, got my eye on a 76 with a 2 ltr in sydney. i wouldn't go a late bay over an early one!!!! my choice i guess , but the earlier the better i reckon.[although i gotta say 72 is the best!!! discs and all!!]

so who wants her then?

What's the deal? Why sell this to get a bus? Isn't a dual cab essentially a bus when it comes to passengers? Or are you guys such prodigious breeders that you need the full 8 seats? Get some weatherproof box for the kiddyjunk in the rear and keep this beauty. no comprende?!?

By the way - happy new year!

hey wombat,
yep, the breeding has overtaken us with a 6 year old, ten month old and now another due next july! just can't leave her alone!!! my wife was having trouble getting all the shopping in the cab area as well as the kids and pram when it rained! i've got a wicked camper canopy for the back but she doesn't like to drive with it on because of the lack of visability apparently! got her a t3 and she loves it so i don't like looking at the twin cab just sitting there so i would rather sell her to see her get driven and enjoyed!
the rig is great but needs to get driven so i am open to offers if someone thinks they are ready for this great ute!!!
cheers josh
