Thread: 1985 County at Auction in Perth (Manheim)

Looking at the state of the floor it looks like it might of been drowned would need to look at it very carefully before throwing any money down.

Judging by my luck in recent weeks wont be going anywhere neat it! but I thought I'd post it up there for anyone that might be interested.

I like it body looks OK the rest is easy fix. I wounder what it will go for ?

It also looks like the Isuzu has been replaced with a 3.5l Rover V8, and a 5 speed, I'd be guessing a LT77, (...........and a Range Rover steering wheel??).

How can you tell ?

I can't see any reference to it having an Isuzu motor. The VIN indicates it's an early 85 station wagon with V8 and 4 speed LT95. Looks like someone has changed the motor to a 3.9 V8 to me.

Hi Andy, I'm just going off the information on the sale sheet, ie 3.5L Petrol and having a 5 speed, (in hindsight it could well be an LT85). It has the Isuzu dash and blanked off firewall air vents, so I'm guessing it originally had the Isuzu and an LT95 box. This is all assuming they didn't get the info in the add wrong........

Cheers,

Tim
