Ballpark figure of 12k. I am going to advertise it in the tradingpost in the next few weeks to see what interest i get.

If i dont get any serious lookers after a month, then ill start to do a few more mods - suspension, front brakes etc

Cheers

To anyone interested im keen on selling this thing. I have another project and the parents are furious that it is still in their garage so i need some money!

Things that have changed that i can think of are:

. 4.625 l300 centre that has been locked
. recieved a hit by a bin to the rear rhs of the bumper which has pushed it in a little
. needs a pad change/ brake fluid change (will do this before it is sold)
. 11 months rego

There would be a few other things that i cant think of, but seeing as i need to sell the car soon to keep the parents happy ive reduced the price also.

Im willing to accept offers around the 8.5k mark, if anyone's interested

ill update the pics soon for everyone to see
