SA: Wrecking VC or $300 Fixer???

[jay019]

Hey,

I have a VC that is sitting in the driveway. So, if you need VC / VB parts pm or call (0404151275)

It's red with the cool monkey poo brown interior. it has a full tank of gas but needs some work, namely rear suspension, small electrical (rear tail lights) and the vacuum hosing on the motor need to be replaced for it to run.

i'll give you 200 for it

[V-ahhh]

Is there any pictures of this car? exterior, interior, engine bay, and specs

[jay019]

I'll have pics soon, but at this price I can tell you it isnt the straightest. It has a few dents and a bit of rust. The back end has been pushed in slightly (was backed into a tree) but apart from that its in fair condition. It has (i think) the 3.3 litre motor in it, I'm sure its a blue motor. I'll take photos in the morning and post them asap.

I'm down south near Noarlunga

A rough estimate of how far in the back has gone and how much rust?

Are the dents fixable? or are they in the roof and rear 1/4's?

still able to be rego'd?????

Adam,

Took some photos, just uploading them now.
Sorry, some of the dents are in the rear 1/4's.
Was still registered when we last used it.

OK. In a tight driveway so not the best pics, but...

[jay019]

As for the rust, its mainly door pillars and the sills under the doors.

After you put the car there how did you get out ........ must have a sunroof haha there is no room there lol .... nice and tight.

I take it that picture number 3 is the area of the tyre well and the last picture is the drivers side .... is that all of the damage?

[jay019]

Actually just lined it up and rolled it back.

The front guard also has a dent (idiot at servo), can add a photo of this too. Its been so long since I had a good look at it I honestly dont know what other damage there is, but it wouldnt be much it was kept in fair condition till the vac tubes deteriated.

Yeah pic 3 -> tirewell. Actually got some of it out from inside the boot, but with proper tools could be done better.

[jay019]

Front end damage...



Was pretty lucky that indicator didn't get damaged worse than that.

[4PLAYN]

Nothing serious like bent chassis?
The guard isnt pushed all the way in distorting the front apron?
Any othe problems with the car besides the dents and the vac lines?

[jay019]

Don't think the chassis is bent. The front apron seems straight. Apart from dents and vac lines...
Rear suspension is getting tired.
Electrical problem with rear lights (indicators stop working when break lights are on)
The reason we got a new car was the fact we were in hospital with a baby and it was getting hard to start due to vac lines leaking. Got sick of it and found a skyline which is what I wanted anyway. Seemed easier to get the skyline than spend money on the commodore as we need a reliable car to get our son to his hospital appointments. Otherwise we'd have got things fixed ourselves and still be using it. You are welcome to come around and take a look at it.
