General Car Chat / The latest classic.
« on: 25 March 2012, 23:08:14 »
It's a modest little car in comparison to some i've had, my main love being 50's/60's rockabilly style Fords & Vauxhalls. Lately the classic car market has shot up in price. It does every now & again & in a year or two will level off again. Being a tight so & so i refuse to fuel such prices but can't last long without an old motor to play with & attend shows/meets etc so was looking for something cheap to ride the market out. I won this on abay for £708. MOT til november & tax till april..(not excempt as it's a 1974 but still in the cheap bracket). I drove it 150 miles home from Towcester...Hi Jamie..close & another 50 odd miles today & still got over half a tank. 3 previous family owners, books/manuals & pictured in the boot are new fan belt, front discs/pads, coil, dizzy cap, points & a few more bits i can't remember & she's never been welded. Everything works. It's always been serviced. Lodger Steve followed me home in my Passat & said he did'nt see a single puff of smoke...only doing 60mph the Passat averaged just over 40 mpg when we got home. Not bad for a 2 litre petrol!
Here's a few piccies taken this afternoon.
