hit by a semi???...jeez!...not good mate... main thing is your relatively unharmed tho. :tu:

amazeer had a kombi he was lookin to sell now i think... fairly cheap i'd assume...only catch is, it sounds pretty average bodywise from the description he gave... depends how much your willing to spend really on getting it shipshape... purchase price vs. restoration cost etc..

also a bit further down there was one in brissy for 1100 bucks, still rego'd (just)... cant remember the condition it is statd to be in tho..

Cheers mate!

The price is negotiable, if your up for the trip to Melbourne...

If you want to give me a call on 0402 425 451, we can work it out. However it would probably be easier to get one locally to you.

Cheers Jon..

anyone know what availibity and usual pricing for a crew cab type 2 is been interested in them for a while

Racer X - March 31st, 2006 at 01:54 PM

at the moment i can proberly afford around the $1100 dollar mark trying to keep it low since i dont need a running vehicle just structually sound anything to fit my engine and gearbox in i pulled just about all i could off my other one bar suspension and brakes so looking for something rolling and cheap hehehe thanks again

I know of a red kombi pop top camper down Myponga way that is missing engine, gearbox and interior. The body was pretty straight with minimal rust. it was originally an 1800 manual. Give me a call if your interested and I will give you the guys details, I think he was asking around $1000
