    Agreed

    The production numbers will make it less special, but bang for the buck will be hard to beat.

    I will disagree with You on that statement.

    Relevant/relative to the mechanical condition of that car,I would think it ideal as a car you could be confident of using on any occasion as it is.

    Unfortunately Slattery's don't give a condition report and the advert sounds like a dealers un/non 'enthusiast' style of description.

    IF!! the thing was in good mechanical cond then I feel it'd be reasonable buying for a very early Aussie delivered E.

    Need to see it ,but an early Aussie car in a great colour combo ,

    For me I'd spend the money on mechanics and making it safe to drive ..

    I agree, would be a great DIY project car, recommission it quickly then slowly work through the rest. Red on red would be a rare combination I would have thought?

    Red on red is rare ,a lot of the work you could do your self .Shockers ,sway bars ,rear springs ,wheels ,wheel bearings ,exhaust .

    The ones people are chasing now are early FHC like that or 4,2 FHC Series ones . And just period mods with good rubber ,

    Eggzackery! Pity Slattery's didn't note any history,it'd bode better for a sale if they had I'd have thought.

    It's not being sold as a resto project,there's a bunch of paperwork that goes with it,a little presumptuous to presume it's gunna need all your dosh to fix it.!

    LOL Panther bit out of my price range.
    I think Carlos was looking around at getting a Centurion, they come up from time.
    I reckon one would make nice display partially hidden in the bushes in the front yard. :)

    I am of the understanding that this Museum will take up about 1/2 of your day to go through and is of fantastic quantity and quality.
    It's down the bottom of the Kuranda range.

    .........just wish I could spare all that time!
