Lovely WB Kingswood ute, top spec driveline

[HK1837]

Yeah its nice. Such a shame they didn't option the sports dash though. Top dollar though.

Yes it is a shame but if it was me buying it i'd rather the buckets, auto and t-bar. Dash is easy to fit and wouldn't be able to tell it wasn't original unlike the rest. I reckon $ are OK. No-one spends in January! Funny thing is people would fight for this as a roughy at $3500, yet would probably have to spend $4k just to put it on the road! And it'll still be rough!

They might have gone up but no one is paying the asking price doesnt that tell you a story there not xu1s or gtrs or sandmans

January has been surprising. I thought it'd be quiet but cars asking reasonable $$ are selling over here. the cheapies are walking.

Agreed Glacier. People vote with their wallets. imo most model WB's will never come within cooeee of their older brother HZ

Probably a fair call.

Can't say never..., they were worth 3 times as much as a hz until about ten years ago. It's only sandman a that are worth more now.

Probably a fair call.

I would pay around $1000 for a mint GTS Dash, if had one it wouldn't be far from it. Maybe he had a spare? :LOL:

[HK1837]

All i'm getting at is if I wanted a nice HZ or WB ute, i'd rather pay $10k for that than $5k for one with rust that has been rebuilt 5 times, bogged, mixmatch of bits and pieces etc. Being a V8 auto it'd b a much better car for everyday use.

i reckon the price is close, but the auction should have started @ $6000.00 and then he may have got maybe $9k its very original which is hard to find these days. they are not making any more.
would look nice parked next to my 4 speed wb, nearly a matching pair.
