I hope that you are not too sad to see it go oz. But I'm sure that you got what you wanted for it! And it was probably under priced with all the unobtanium.
Wow, hope you can convince the guy to join here and post some photos of the process.

mook..how do you price something so rare?..im happy with what i got but more happy that someone will restore it to its former showroom glory..i had to face up to the fact that i could not devote myself to do it unless i retired..Originally Posted by mook
luckily i have been appointed chief advisor on the restoration of the van and also the xx7 hj ute i sold him as well..

That's good to see oz,it has gone to a good home and will be loved forever. Such a rare vehicle,I wouldn't be game to drive it,not even around here.

Sad to see it go I bet. But always good to know it is going to someone who truly appreciates them.
It's good to see you found a use for Grandma's old crochet rug that prob took her two years to complete.... lol
