im third owner from new and the bloke i bought it off of had it
in his shed for 9 months and the wife said sell it!
then i came alone and paid $1500 for the old gem
that was back in 01 and its been in this condition ever since
with some rust spots which i will show with pics
basicly the dream is to build a street/strip/show car
it still has the dealer stamp under the bonnet(north city holden osbourne park)

I agree with the other guys about 'having a go yourself'. Saves alot of money and very rewarding (best way to learn as well).
Enjoy the experience,
Mick.

for $1500 i reckon got a deal there and i agree learn to do things your self the preparing anyway it will cost you less in the end and you will know how good of job is done as well , i completely stripped mine and then used 27 litres of paint stripper to get it completely down to a bare metal shell one bit of advice is take photos of everything wiring ,engine bay etc so when you put it back together you have a reference on how everything goes back together.
yeah sweet man i reckon taking photos would be best as i would stand there with wires and hoses in both hands thinking fark!!! photos!
