Hi all.
I have had a bloke who owns a hatch in Melbourne send me some pictures of his rear floor.
It won't take the banjo diff and is fitted with a small Salisbury diff.
I think the car may have been stolen at some point in time and rebithed as a 4 cylinder sunbird.
Can others who know look at the pictures he has sent me give me their thoughts please.
If you have negative bullshit I don't want to know so please kepp it to yourself.

Radious at edge of infill section. Looks close to a9x but its been a long time since I looked at one. Radious looks a bit small thought it was bigger from memory.

Current diff in the car is a uc small Salisbury diff.

Doesn't the UC share the same rear floor section as the A9X?

Could the car be a UC? You haven't mentioned what front panels are on the car, but I assume that it may be LX.

[Shtstr]

No they are different

Car is a lx hatchback.

Is it green over original white?

[Shtstr]

Don't know. Will be talking to him more tonight. Why is that

[myss427]

Looks like it has had a front floor patch been put in, under the carpet does it have the vent plate attached to the wood? Also the inside of the wheel arch looks flair-less, is it?

[Shtstr]

Will be talking to him tonight. I will have more pics then. He said it has a plate fitted from factory saying limited edition. Will get a pic of that too.

I know of a white A9X that was stolen and recovered in the 90's with Sunbird plates on it.

[Shtstr]

He just sent me a pic of the dash facia with the limit edition and rts plates fitted

Limited edition my arse

[Rockoz]

May be wrong but Im thinking rear cut and shut with a couple of those pics

[Shtstr]

Would like to know what b8s is. Blister looks correct for a9x from what I can see in the pics. Is anyone in Melbourne who knows exactly what to look for with knowledge of a9x body shells interested in going to look at it?

[Shtstr]

Thats the fuel block for adrs. A9x is the only car fitted with that setup as far as I know.

I thought it would be the fuel vapour separator that every car with a charcoal canister should/must have.

[Shtstr]

Thats it

Agree. This join in the floor under the rear seat doesn't look factory.

[wot179]

That would be typical of an insurance company back in the day.

Supply the back half of a rooted A9X to repair a sunbudgie.

[Rockoz]

Not just insurance companies Wot.

Mate of my brother used to make his living from going to salvage auctions buying desirable cars he could turn a buck on.

He wasnt alone. There were lots doing it.

[wot179]

Yeah, I know.

I know a guy that earnt a grand backyard living by specialising in cutting and shutting Camiras.

But back to the car at hand......Id love to see heaps more pics.

[Shtstr]

Again. Is there anyone in Melbourne who knows what to look for a9x wise to verify the car?
