Just been on www.carsales.com.au and seen that fatso the Kombi is still listed but the price is now $4,000 - lol :-)
If the write up is so good then why the massive reduction in $$

if the motor and box are damaged then I expect a bit of thrashing has gone on.
Greedy51 used to own it so he should know what the $$ was before this and the other add ons.

it was posted for a lot because it was worth a lot. the kid that owns it now is much like me, a mechanical retard. only he tried to do stupid things like play with the supercharger.
thats why the engines damaged.
other than that the car would be a brilliant project. paint, interior, rust all done well. pity it was sold to a dingus with a toolshed :blush

I'll give him 6 pack of cascade light and maybe half a pack of whinnie blues.lol.

Some kids have no respect for cars, thats a real shame. I remeber seeing this car a while back and it wasn't too bad. Sound like she had a real hard life since the first sale.

greedy owned it two owners ago, then it was good. since then two teenagers have owned it, played with it, and basically stuffed it.

it is now being rebuilt by a new owner.
