1970 model as that was supplied by seller with VIN number ,checks out.
Semi setup for 350 Chevy but not much to work with...should you proceed that way ?, 930 wheels , and front end conversion also from that model ,stock rear brakes , trans supplied (901 tailshift ) matted to the Chevy . Key points from the seller were rather sparse; Rusty in places but not real bad (opinion) in this case, steel flares on but only tacked on with spot welds ,hard to see that from pic , not one pic of the underside ,but the interior floor looked ok under all the mess. was supplied with a heap of parts ,many from a second car parted out, Chevy is apparently unknown history but and presents well , no rego in my country so a real hassle , front panel chewed up with holes !! . Only for the distant and freight cost for in-op I might have has keen. Comments would be interesting ,this car sold for $3510 NZD . ![]() |

Problems here is the transport costs have risen steeply ,I moved my 73 roller from the mid north island to a ferry to the top of our south island where I live ,that was back on 2015 I payed $1000 @ the time ,that would be the best part of $2500 now easily.
Transport company's have faced a rise in fuel costs coupled with paying long haul drivers more as there was a shortage as wages were very poor so basically not much more than our minimum wage ,that has now changed . The industry had cut rate operators but they have been swallowed up by the biggest operator called Vehicle Movements who seem to now rule the industry . As this vehicle has no previous registration in our country it would need some proof of origin before you can even look @ compliance which because of the government rules is a rather expensive process ,in this case with the cars modified condition that would increase cost further . Parts are in very short supply also ,I bought in all my parts in when the dollar was strong against the US . Appears the seller had done his research and just wanted it gone ? as the PO how did most of the previous work found out. Cheers. ![]() |
