I have a VC wagon with a 253, The auto died, I pulled it out and thats where its at.
The engines good. I bought a 253 and trimatic to use the trimatic for the VC however I got a v8 patrol and the VC is now excess.
Was recently RWC and regoed in October last year. No rego no RWC now. It wont take much to get rwc once its put back together.
Will sell car whole including spare trimatic and spare engine for $200. Downside is ive removed a few things from the VC engine, such as the radiator hose, throttle cable and ive got to take the bilstiens out and put the old shocks back in.
Also have lowered lovell springs for VC wagon ($100) and some front lowered king springs ($50).
Willing to part out the car, so if you are after parts let me know.
