Well i guess it's mine! there has been a few offers recently and basically i dont think the father inlaw really wants anyone else but the wife and i to have it! so he asked if i could keep it in our garage, we havent discussed price/payment yet but i dont think he really cares..
When i drove it home on the freeway it started to gain a very loud ticking noise [camshaft speed] then when the noise cleared it started misfiring! i assume maybe push rod lifter issue's.. soon to strip it down to check it out. here are some recent shots..

I sold Clint the bonnet bar on that car for $50 -as it is - and I felt like a prick for charging him so much :shock:
Now I need one for my ute and its going to cost me heaps :cry: :cry: :cry:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

If you'r going to give it away I'll have it back, my daughter cried when I sold it after taking 5 years to build it but velvet seats and no seat belts is not a good family car, Blacky I was happy to pay as mine was stuffed as I put my thumb through it, it had rusted from the inside out as for the flake it was built to a theme "Retro 70's hence the flake and diamond buttoned velvet seats
Happy to be living past my "Use by Date" as in august 2007 they gave me 6-12 months to live

25k a tad high i agree but he has a buyer for 20 i think! after having it in my carport for 2 years i drove it about 4 times.
