WTB Early Fastback
crewcabconnection - April 12th, 2006 at 09:08 PM

Need something for the weekdays ... looking for an early fastback as a daily driver. Saw the one on Car Sales that Pete Wood posted ... something like that (that guys gone on holiday and can't view it).

Not interested in a 'fixer' or a 'just needs paint' or a 'motor needs a tidy'. Looking for a noice one. Need a break from resto's ... but need something I can punt to work and back. Wife returning to work and want's her car back.

The ride I had my eye on's sold, no back to the drawing board. Like the recent piccy posts ... never understood why people don't like them? Ideally a 67 to go with my bus.

-------------------------
Buying advice appreciated on this post ... figure I'm looking somewhere 5-10k? (Andy and Bruce - don't even think about saying it!).

Cheers

1967 fasty

No money tree mate ... saved for 4 years to fund the bus. Also sold my 63 Panel and Crew Cab to fund it. Just Sold my bay. It's all recycling really.

Scored a Double Door Panel - but no where near enough money to even think about it.

Sez your Mr Brand Spanking Peugoet.

Thanks for the lead. Not quite what I'm after ... which is something like

Do you want a notch? or just a fasty?


crewcabconnection - April 17th, 2006 at 10:42 AM

fasty - though seems I'm being picky, early one, either done (as above) or original with the lot to do I guess (in which I'm not looking to pay a lot as the resto will be lots). Don't want a notch.

Ok I get it you want a fastback.
My brother has a beige 67 fasty daily driver for last 4 years. He has now finished his late wagon so he is not driving it anymore.
It has a mint stock poo brown interior with z handles.
Late brakes with a custom brake booster ( brakes like a new car), lowered, gearbox and engine excellent.
12v , twin port, twin carby, 2 sp wipers, and many cool accessories.

Let me know what you think.
