Just before Christmas I picked this little beauty up here in the ACT -From the almost complete lack of rust, and looking at the papers, this car has lived in Canberra all its life.






Some minor work required prior to being registered - but hopefully soon. Nothing major planned -I intend keeping this car as close to original as I can.

Lovely 1500, the light interior looks great, a nice change from the standard black and brown that is usually the norm.

So why "Manuel"? Why not "Walter"?

Both names derived from 'Fawlty Towers"....馃槀馃槀馃槀

Could have been Sybil or Polly I suppose - but Manuel it is!馃槑

did you get yr battery clamp yet make sure you get the proper battery for it
otherwise you may have a fire if some one sits on the back seat

Just scored one today! But the list of items needed seems limitless so I am coming to Syd next week for some specialised shopping therapy!
