I saw this in person and it looked pretty tight. Lots to drool over, mostly early Porsches and Aston Martins.

good ole classic throttle shop... i went in a few years ago and walked out slightly deflated by the prices...needless to say if you have to ask how much... still, it's good to see they aren't all rusting away on peoples farms or used as boat anchors.



How many is enough?

That was my old bus - I bought it from Steve Muller & it came from Andrew out of SA before that. I sold it to an A-Hole in VIC who was supposed to give me first option back at it (I gave him 12 months to pay for it too) - but he got greedy & sold it to the classic throttle shop.

42500K is a bit steep! I know it is a good honest bus and saw it in the flesh when Guy owned it but that is a bit too much. someone with too much money will buy it though.
