so no one interested?


56ovalrat - February 3rd, 2013 at 09:51 AM

hi every1 im putting my oval back up for sale all details are as above, except it ran out of rego in dec 2012 couldn't afford to keep it on the road this is very unfortunate so hope i can find a good home for it

It's a nice looking car and I hope the sale goes well.

I would like to point out that potential buyers are almost always put off by the whole "currently registered but sell unregistered as is" thing. Unless of course the car is an obvious restorer. My suspicious mind says that if it is any good why not put a RWC with it and sell registered (which I'd also like to point out is a $550 on the spot fine in Qld for not doing so, the vehicle actually has to be unregistered before offering for sale. I know it is now but at the time of the original ad was not). Or at least an idea for buyers of why it wouldn't pass a RWC. You can easilly get more for a car with a RWC.

I'm not having a go, just saying it might take a while to sell at that price without rego or RWC.

Do you have the original items you have taken of it like wheels brakes, steering wheel etc?


56ovalrat - February 9th, 2013 at 04:07 PM

sorry do not have any of the origanal parts due to lack of space


pogo - February 10th, 2013 at 08:49 AM
