New Ute

[randomhero365]

Hey guys, I know this should be in the for sale / buy section but I thought I would get more views here.
If you need to move it then move it.

I'm in Perth and I'm looking for a manual ute, dont care what model aslong as its in good condition, I'm looking to spend up to $8000.
Can someone please help me?
I've looked in trading post and called about 3 of them, all are sold.
Cheers.
Andrew

Don't like your chances or much more than a VS for that price range! And that would be a high k one in white.

just aslong as it runs well, my plans are to drop an 8 in there soon enough, so just aslong as its reliable..
I dont mind the look of the vs utes either

There was a Devil yellow VP Ute with a V6/manual in it, was in the trader for ages at 6k. Might be worth a look on there and flying here and driving back?

Interiors allright, just faded a bit, seats are all kind of..mashed in like..the fibre has started becoming flat and 1 surface if you get me??
But that would be from 31 years of people sitting in it.
other than that it just needs a vacuum :P

yer, I wasnt too fond of the rims, I was thinking about putting some old style ones on, or if you have a better idea?

put centrelines or weld wheels on there.... i dont think the seats or trims are original

202 straight 6

those wheels will take half the power lol. how much was it if u dont mind me asking

[randomhero365]

$6300.
before you say that was overpriced you should have seen the list of things hes done..
it used to be a well body, now its a trayback, a few mods here and there to the engine, the wheels obviously and a few others..

[TUF UTE]

its clean and a ute , they hold there value.

[seannatt]

i reckon 6300 is a pretty good buy. Its clean and straight, couldnt of asked for much else... wheels are horrid though. Get some fr19's when you got a spare 4k laying around...

[TUF UTE]

[randomhero365]

[TUF UTE]

I never realised you were looking at non commodore utes aswell!

Tonners hold their value way too well. Still work upwards of 10k if they have a tipper.
