A few of you have seen my old SIII in person, most haven't so I'll describe. It's yellow, it's diesel, it's complete, it needs a re wire and a complete de rust in the bulkhead department. Everything else is good.

It needs work to get it back on the road therefore I am not asking the world for it.

Or am I? The last two folks I have talked to regarding it assume that the car must be ready for rego at the price of $750.00

Where can you get a registered car or even one ready for rego for that price? I have never seen one, Please tell me your opinions.

Agreed - at that price I would expect to have a bit of work to do. Good luck mate.

Thats just it it isn't

You could get it regoed for $3.5k - $4k total.

There isn't that much work. The price was to get rid of it cheap, and just cover my costs.

And end up with a great vehicle to get around in - and then some. Just needs the right person at the right time. It will happen mate. Patience.

Maybe they're cheaper in the West. The one below was recently purchased in Kalgoorlie for $500 - diesel, registered and runs well.

7650

Another friend has also recently purchased a very similar one locally for $300 - diesel, runs well but unregistered in this case.

Still, I think they're quite cheap prices. I'd certainly pay $750 for a runner provided it wasn't going to cost me too much to get in on the road. By today's standards, that's still cheap transport, and there's nothing wrong with a Series III diesel.
