You won't find a cheap one, and if you do, it will be cheap, coz it's in crap condition.

Yeah i agree with you but he was after a website to find a cheap one and ebay did have one listed this year.I think the days of finding a good one under $40000 are over unless its been thrashed/stolen/neglected.

yea i agree...
the one i saw on ebay about a yr ago wouldve been a good one for lunatik... as it just needed a bit of tlc
the one on ebay a couple months ago however i wouldnt touch.. as i believe it was prob a reshell... it had all the makings of a walkie, but without a build plate..

Shouldn't take you long to find something. Just make sure you check all the usual sites often.

I'd say each states HSV forums. Place an add in the NSW and QLD HSV monthly classifieds. Quite often it's through word of mouth at clubs. That's how I picked up mine, it was never advertised.
