As in title.

For the last 10 years this was my wife's daily runner. It went from home to the station and back (3kms) and to the shops once or twice a week. It's got a towbar and I took a trailer to the tip every month or so. Probably an average of 50kms per week since we've had it. We're both in our 50's so hasn't had a hard time.

Runs well

Manual gearbox - new clutch a couple of thousand k's ago.

Airconditioned - works well (bloody freezing).

Seats/interior all good.

Good general condition for its age.

Paint is faded

Radio doesn't work

Needs a couple of tyres.

Passenger side door mirror is gone - some doofus at the station wanted it :(

It's currently registered (and in use) but selling unregistered.

$500.

No offers thanks.

PM if interested...thanks.

Would've bought this INSTANTLY if it was in SA

How many K's? Is it in road worthy condition? In your honest opinion would it make it from Brisbane to Adelaide without any hassles? (driven).

It's done around 200ks. The odometer cacked itself 5 or 6 years ago and was replaced with one from the wreckers but that didn't work either, although in both cases the speedo worked.

There's no oil leaks, engine bay is all original (no dodgy wiring etc.)

As I said, it will need a couple of tyres but honestly there is no reason why it wouldn't make it.

It's an honest car. We are the second owners. Previous owners were also "middle aged" so it's never had a tough time.

If you are genuinely interested pm me your email address and I'll take some more photo's and send them to you.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
