Seeking Kombi to buy.
nemo - January 12th, 2005 at 04:33 PM

G'day,
I'm looking for a Kombi van (pre 1980, non pop-top) to buy. Am seeking one that is in v/good to excellent condition in the body/paintwork (no rust), 1.8L or larger engine, manual, good interior.
So far I haven't come across too many for sale at all in the Sydney area. Am willing to pay up to about 7-8k for the right one.
Does anybody have any suggestions, or know of any that aren't advertised in the mainstream?
If you could let me know I'd appreciate it.
Cheers,
Watto.

Check out the ones for sale in the buy sell section. There's a great one in Brissy for $4500 + $100 for flight to Brissy :-)

Good luck with the purchase, there will be one out there to suit your needs, just watchout for hidden rust!
