My new Oval
waltermitty - December 14th, 2003 at 09:06 AM

Not bad for $3000. Its a 54 Mangles, empi shifter, one piece windows, snoop mirrors, working semaphores, 12 volt 1600 twinport, twin webbers cb linkage manifiold and filter set, 009, twin empi stainless exhaust, adjustable front end , heaps of bits in the boot nice car cover , a holly bugspray with manifold and linkages etc, a set of new whitewalls and a pair of heat taillights in a shoe box.
I must thank Dave from Albury, I had paid him for his when this came up I sent a photo and he sent my money back saying go for it . Although his is quite a different car this is much better for me his is a great buy also , especial;ly for someone after originality. Thanks Dave great bloke.

Nice work, twin webbers, heart tail-lights....and an oval thrown in for $3K. That is a damn sweet deal. Looks good (even if there is work to do - what 40 year plus car doesn't need work :)
