^that thing is ****ed dented roof, dented bonnet structural rust in the rear pillar, hole in the roof, hefty rust around windscreen seals, sills, quarter panels and doors. dead battery & rego due in oct. floors are good though. she'd sell it for about 700 or so.

yer i offered her $200 and she said na more like $500 so i said 350 n said she would think about it.. then mike called me telling me she wanted 700?? few ppl must have made a few offers on it b4 seeing it n she thinks shes sitting on a gold mine! not worth nothing if its that far gone, replacement parts wouldnt be easy or cheap to come by for a ke20!

yeah you're right man. its honestly past the point of a bit of bog & coat of paint. 350 would be a fair price, even if it were just for the plates. its on whitby just off manning rd if anyone wants to have a geeze

8.....k.......wow.......i could.....but.....no.....must...not... argh (translation: On paper, if all is okay, that there is a f*cking bargain) ------ edit: vehicle apparently has about 280,000km or so on the block? Minor rust the owner said, but nothing too serious he reckons. http://calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=160474 (original owners FS thread about 1 yr ago, has a few decent mods, should go okay)
