tell him ,he's dreaming! 66 dodge dart??
There is a couple that I deliver hay to. They have a bunch of old chevys and fords siting around that they say they try to sell over seas to australia because they can get these outrageous prices for them.
if ya guys wanna laugh at prices , go to the ebay.com.au and look under collector cars section, wow the prices for mustangs, chevs , vetts ,are sum times crazy...i knew i guy who paid $12k for a 66 mustang 6cly auto poverty pak model,needed floor pans, sills ,ran like a ol coal train,needed a full repaint, trim looked like a cat and 2 german shepards had attacked it so just think how much it would owe him finished but he loves it !
50's chevs go for nutso money, ya really gotta do ya home work in australia before ya buy something, sum really really "dodgy rusty/bogged up/bondo have turned up here ,kinda criminal..guys here get excited with "glamour "20ft away pictures of a car promised the world that the car is "perfect one owner rust free never smashed with low low miles X showcar museum piece, survivor....." get it to Oz and its a death trap, rough as guts!
a good freind of mine runs a resto shop i saw a 57 chev convert that came in bought threw ebay .it looked great it was a "older restoration', but things changed when the owner found out the entire floor was rusted out and merely gel coated with fibre glass!!!!! car was torn apart and one rear quarter panel had even been replaced and then pop riveted together and bogged up,doors rusted out .this car owed the new owner around $50k delivered to OZ, he spent a further $40k on a full resto on this car, gotta try get sum pics of it very scary prior its rebuild
then another problem is when people here in Oz decide to convert their "newly aquired" LHD car and do the most dangerous RHD "home ' converstions ..these cars never drive again properly....bitza of this bitza this,.....when it doubt leave the bloody thing lhd!
oh yeh that dodge is $8990 deliverd to australia , so my opoliges for adding freight costs to that , but i still think its a bit of money for it..considering it needs alot of luv in the back end. ...maybe its a weekend repair job....still ya never know with ebay
keep cruzin
aussie dart guy:-D
