Hi All,
My build is taking much longer than expected, i keep finding more problems with it, I have decided to strip her down completely and get her blasted back to metal and start from scratch. In the meantime i was thinking of buying another.
I would like a daily driver with RWC or close to...
Not too far from SE Melbourne but willing to travel
Sedan or wagon
FB or EK
nice and cheap so i can put my money into the project build
PM if you have any leads
Cheers
Jarvo

The missus has now given me the go ahead to look for the daily driver so if anyone knows of an EK sedan in Melbourne for sale let me know
Cheers

Famous last words.....
If you find a cheap one I'll guarantee it'll eat up your project money before you know it. There's always a reason they're cheap! Unless you are really really lucky you might be struggling.

For a reasonable daily you're looking at, at least $12 to $15 grand.
But what do I know I have mine built...

Thanks guys. Yeah when i say cheap i was hoping for around the $10K mark. I thought i picked a good one as my project car but there were alot of hidden nasties so it's going to take alot longer to get on the road than i planned

Be prepared to possibly be fixing the same things on your daily as the project car.....

I may have found an original FB which i will hopefully check out ASAP.
All goes well I will put an offer on her, buy her, get a club membership and start taking her on cruises...
Only a tiny bit excited
Cheers
