    My barn find!!

    Well more of a back yard than a barn find, but check this out... This is what a mate of mine showed me last week in a backyard in melbs west. (no im not tellin where..! ) Took some pics today.

    Problem is the guy looks like one of those hoarders. Theres crap everywhere.

    If you look reeeeaaaaallly closely, you can just make out the back of a panel van parked a bit in front of the monaro. And you cant really see it but across to the left is a ute. So overgrown I cant get any details. Im gunna go back sometime when im not in my ambo uniform and jump the fence to get more details.... Sorry best photos I could get today. Cool huh!!??






    THEY'RE STILL OUT THERE!!

    Considering where it is it looks to be in pretty good nic, very original looking car also on the outside. Interior looks to have had a cloth re-trim at some stage....

    Good luck Hainzy, hope you can get it........ if I don't beat you to it

    Number 1 rule you always adhere to Hainzy! Never, I repeat never post pictures of wonderful finds like this on the internet! Keep it a secret till you scout the guy out and potentially buy it! All the best hainzy, what a great little find! Let's hope the guy doesn't know its market value...

    About $5000....... Monaro prices have dropped considerably and the one Hainzy has found is only a base model.......
