When rolling shells are going for $10,000, and there are Monaro's on places like Carsales.com and Carpoint going for anywhere between $25,000 and a massive $125,000 for a genuine Bathurst Monaro, that car isn't bad at all.
Anyone who has hung around people involved in the classic car or vintage car movement will know that something like a rusty pile of little bits and a bare chassis sitting on a trailer is a challenge to be eagerly met...one in particular I recall from Restored Cars magazine some years back was a mid-1920's Rugby tourer which was a chassis and a firewall cowl panel in the scrub...that was it...and it ended up a show winner that looked like it was built yesterday.
That Monaro is easily salvageable...depends how dedicated you are.
Let's hope someone saves it!:thumbsup:
