Andrew
Sounds like you got yourself a bargain there.
If you want spares for it there is a white one on Benarra road not far from the corner
off benarra Rd and Tonkin highway I think it is very straight and is complete they
were only asking $600.00 aswell.
Maybee the white one you can strip the brakes for your 1600.
Where abouts in Perth are you?
I am in Morley.
Wot 1600 do you drive I have got a,
71 Quasar orange 1600 sedan with large bridgestone sticker on windscreen.
71 faded dark green 1600 station wagon.
And now a original 70 light blue SSS 1600.
Maybee you have seen the wagon and the sedan on the roads sometime in the past.
Maybee we could catch up sometime??
Till next time happy motoring.
Bye for now.
Rick White.
