    Are your 6 all in such good condition?

    Many that I have seen around the place are that full of rust you'd never get them registered. The value therefore, relates to the condition and not just to quantity.
    One of ours which was purchased for my previously mentioned price was already rebuilt and registered and also included a full second chassie. 2 others are in running and registrable condition.

    The other three are more usable for parts but are in running condition.

    Hope this answers your question.

    Kind Regards.

    So the answer to the question, would be that maybe 3 are goers and have a possible value somewhere between $5K and $15K each, that's a far cry from 6 at 15K .

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    The Steyr-Puch Haflinger series commenced in 1959 and continued production until 1974. They were largely designed as army transporters with the ability to travel across various surfaces and were popular in the Swiss and Austrian armies, though some made their way abroad to Australia and Indonesia among other countries. Various versions were produced, bodied for the job at hand- some open-topped, some in utility, van or armoured form. The range was quite impressive, some police forces using their capabilities, while there was even a street-cleaning version available on the same platform and an amphibious version. Australia initially received fully built-up army vehicles from Indonesia before a CKD build facility was opened locally in 1967. The Haflingers subsequently proved loyal servants for the Australian Army over many more years."

    Ha Ha Ha..

    Not judging by the condition of the ones they sold off at Tottenham all through 1969- well at least until July when finally I finally bought my first Land Rover!!

    I sold an original LWB version back in 2008 for over $10k.

    It was in excellent unrestored condition.

    You can obviously get them for less but it will cost you in the long run...

    Oh yeah I remember a few people ringing up at the time with low ball offers.

    I am sure I offended more than a few by refusing their generous offers Grover

    To be honest, I didn't even know what a haglinger really looked like.
    Thought I'll just google and we'll work it out. But no need.
    I arrive back in Melb to find 1 fine AND real example right here in the yard. I could not just look but touch too. Lol

    So then WHO's transport a Tasmanina registered haflinger yr 1969 from memory somewhere ??

    Cheers joe

    Given what the vehicle is, I really do not see why Haflingers attract such high prices. I have been an admirer of them since the early 70s and nearly bought one 20 years ago.

    I certainly would like one and missed one for $4k an couple of years ago but I do not believe they are worth $15-$20K for a good one but then I guess they are worth what someone is prepared to pay.
