Hello Everyone

Post by BarryC »

New to the site but not to the marque.

Do not have one at the moment :cry: but am looking to buy one soon. Checking it out next weekend.

Previously ('84 to '86) have owned an SP(L) 310 and ('86 to '87) a '68 SR(L)311.

Have had a look around in here and like what I have found. Looking forward to getting to know you all.

Welcome to the site! Glad to hear you are picking another up. Looks like a clean 69 with deleted side markers. Didn't see a good shot of the interior but if it looks anything like the exterior you will be in good shape.

It sure looks sweet!!!
There are quite a few Aussie's on board, I'm sure they will chime in.
It sure looks like there is not much to do other than enjoy it!

Thanks. That's what I am hoping. If I buy it I am certain to find out soon enough as the drive back is 900klm (540 miles).
Looking forward to that road trip.

Very clean, nice looking car. We've got the same wheels and I actually prefer them (and slotted mag types) over the panasports. What is the seller asking for it?

Hi Duece. He is asking 22,000 for it. I was going to fly up this weekend to see it but have delayed the trip because of the floods.
