What is it worth? 110 County

[paulio]

I know a car is worth what someone is willing to pay for it But what are your opinions on how much the following county is worth?

89 County
Front and rear lockers / maxi drive axles
Side steps rock sliders
Very clean interior
Bruce Davis 4.8L V8 still very smooth and powerfull no smoke
5speed box LT77 with oil feed mods - will this handle a heavy right foot and large tyres?
Long range tanks
steel rims and newish tyres

Mechanically seems great very tight driveline
though body has rust under each door and rust hole
in right hand side firewall top

No current rego

Any help on its value appreciated! Currently asking 5k

Hi Paulio, it seems to me to be worth $5k with all those mods and accessories if the vehicle has a clear title and the rust is not too severe.Have you checked the rear cross member and the fire wall for rust as well as you can?Cheers, 130man.

Don't tell me Mick and Chris have corrupted you!

I'm not up on Countys etc, but that sounds like some very very good value to me.

If its to replace you hilux and you want to hammer it, then the bits you'll break are the front diff, axles, CV's - these can be upgraded and Chris has the low down on that, but you can get stronger diffs and what are basically Longfields. Also the rear lower links need beefing right up also. Personally I wouldn't run bent links there, but many do.

Are you moving the Hilux on?

[paulio]

130man, yes i have check the other parts, firewall seems to be just in passenger top corner from what i can see, no carpet in the foot wells and it seems to just be a little surface rust here and there.


Hi Slunnie lol
Yes I will be moving the hilux on sometime this year unfortunatley,
just got sick of going slow and the bumpy ride, plus i have driven
all the hard tracks around here, so i'll be happy to move on
Might try and get a mag photo shoot first :P

[130man]

Hi Paulio, in that case I would go for it.Cheers, 130man.
