Wheels Car will be sold with 15x6 and 15x9 Weld Prostars Bridgestone 205's on the front Sumitomo 295's on the back To explain the misshap of the ute Quote: Originally Posted by Epitaph its like this fellas. taking a bloke for a test drive tonite, the fan let go, hitting right front guard, punching the paint off (fair amount), small dent, then bonnet, small dent, then other guard, small dent.. i've rang my painter, he said 3k max to fix, and 3 weeks. so for that, you can take it away for 12k no guages. i just wanna see the back of it, it's that simple. dont fu ck me around, i dont wanna hear about it. im over it. no i cant meet you somewhere for you to see it, i dont wanna drive it anywhere. Pics [/QUOTE] I have seen this car, I have been it. It is simply one of the nicest cars I have been in and seen. It goes as hard as it looks. Do not be fooled by the picutures the color is different when you see it in rea life, Pictures do not do it justice. This car lives in a garage covered up, which is a shame really, but he has not time for it. Do not insult with stupid offers, as it is low enough, over 35k has been spend on this car. It is amazing inside out. As the title stated, After a VLCT / VLT Swap, or the money up front. Something nice and clean with maybe minimal mods. If not a cash adjustment. Alot of time blood, sweat time and effort has been put into this car, now it just needs a good home. Contact Myself or Kane (Epitath) Via PM or on [phone removed] rain hail or shine. Asking Price: 12000 OR SWAP FOR VLC T / VLT Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

please note, this pic looks like the crack in the paint goes all the way up to the top, but it doesnt, it only goes to where it is VERY visibal. it didnt break through the guard, just convexed it out and popped the paint. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I've talked to epitaph numerous amounts of times about his tonner (well, mainly him trying to sell it to me :P) and trust me, if I had the 12k i'd be getting this. After owning a tonner myself, mine just had a blue block 308 in it and it was a handful, I couldn't imagine what this thing would be like! Good luck wit the sale bro.

The majority of people on here are young dosing wogs. Surely there must be some aussie muscle car forum with older guys with money who would actually buy this car. oh and btw, whats the go with insurance, cant you organise that paint to get fixed through that or something? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
