    Just out of curiosity... How much would the mustang sell for?
    And what colour?
    He wants around $20,000 for it. But he is not in a rush to sell it because the bike he wants is not on the importable bikes list yet, it is under review though.
    It is a light blue colour with a dark blue interior. I personally don't like the colour. I have always said he should have gotten it sprayed a dark blue. It also has a reconditioned V8 engine so it is a great sounding car. Still original left hand drive.

    Helle, He plans to paint it hot pink for her.

    Kazzo, I would say (like Helle) a Torana. Noice!

    Helle, I would LOVE a monaro! <drool> Or a charger.... or a ford coupe.... lol

    Mrs Bexie; look up muzzies (mustangs) on unique car sales, or even on ebay (there are different sections within the site, like restoration, etc) to see what is going for how much. There are also american car resto places (all over the country) that bring in whole cars, and sometimes have basket cases (needing full resto). That is a much better way to buy a vehicle, unless you really know what you are looking at online. Ie, you can go over the vehicle before having won it at auction. If and when you get one, or even before, consider joining a car club for muzzies or american cars. They are a wealth of information, and often have just the spare part that you might be looking for. You may even be able to sound off them a car you are looking at buying, or get one of them to go with you to look at a vehicle (and be able to tell you what you're getting yourself into). Then, you can go for cruises with them (nothing quite like going for a cruise with a bunch of other similar vehicles, VERY headturning!), club runs, etc. Car clubs now are more often than not great family gatherings. I can't really think of any that are purely masculine domains anymore (even the Commercial Vehicle club here in Vic were encouraging me to join with my Land Rover).

    Well I can safely say I do

    I recently purchased my first actual classic

    1982 Mazda RX7
    12A Rotor
    Automatic (For teh Cruisings)
    Fitted Racing seats
    Removed Back seats.

    She needs some work but when it is finished it will look hopefully show worthy.
    I am trying my best to keep it stock but it is a battle with my self.

    Will put pics up on request!
