This car is a real head turner, and I get great comments and feedback wherever I go with it.

All work has been done to a very high standard, with no corners cut.

Before me, this car was owned by a fella called Shane, and was well known in Victoria. I say this as you or someone you know may know something about it’s condition from back then. The condition has not deteriorated since then, and it is just as solid.

The best way for me to answer your questions is by email: luke @ nutida.net but you can call 0404918948 between 6 – 10pm weekdays or daytime weekends if you would prefer.

Thanks for looking. If there is anything in particular you would like photos of, please email me and I will get them to you within 24 hours.

The price is $12,500, or $11,000 without the wheels.

The car is located about an hour north of Melbourne city, just off the Hume Freeway.

Cheers,

Luke.
