car buying?

[ajvx01]

so basically i currently have no car just the company vehichle and am researching and considering a new toy... my issue is im after an early girl V8 (VL or pre) ideally a vh or vk but using the usual searches i dont seem to be able to find any in sa for sale? im aware that buying cars interstae is doable but id prefer not to have too...

question is can anyone reccomend places to look other than car sales and this and sc forum?

im in no rush just wondering where i should look?

gum tree.and try some of the small car yards

[ajvx01]

trick is finding a decent small car yard that has what i want, wish they all used carsales!

Now are we talking project or something ready to drive? What happened to your VX??

[ajvx01]

sold the vx.
needed cash quick to pay off wedding, debt over my head affects my sleep!
plus it was a great car and wish i coulda kept it but i always wanted a nice cammy v8, so new slate.
you knew my vx?

and ideally drivable but not huge deal breaker..

gunna be a "street spec" project. ie mild engine with good original paint or closed door respay in same colour. just want a NEAT tidy cruiser with that 5L note.

Knew your VX from the other forum. Extremely tidy car. Pity you had to sell. I know of a VH group 3 replica( mini tubs, 20" show wheels, bagged, big HP 304 etc but maybe a bit rich. Plus it's in Victoria.

[doctor who]

Impounded car auctions, like hoon cars that are being sold and wrecks that have been towed by the council.

1983 HOLDEN COMMODORE SL/E VH 4D SEDAN - Richmond - SA - $ 5,900.00

This looks decent

[ajvx01]

Thanks bud..

But it's a 253 only really after a 308, better sound and more power potential..

It's my nephews car. He offered it to me, but I don't know how serious he was thought. It's red by the way. Is there any other color?

white?

any colour lol.depends what people call a replica.most are just kitted cars with stickers.

ask your nephew how much if he was to sell anyways

[ajvx01]

You are by far becoming my new favoriteforum member

but yea would never pay the 3300 for something that ruined of an interior...

I'll ask him and PM you if he's keen. It's a kitted and stickered car with matching interior, but with mini tubs, 20's, bags and the engine it never going to be a proper replica. But looks the part.
