Do you know of any marina clubs in New Zealand. I have 3 marina's for sale and very large truck load of parts that need a good home (includes new factory body panels)



If someone over there want the email address, please let me know.

Allready on to this
Went to take a look there yesterday, he has got everything!!!!!
I bought his accident damaged coupe to have a go at rebuilding it, its a massive project, but rust free. I've put an ad on Trade me, but if anyone needs anything, just let me know
Cheers Ben

Hoo boy! You probably know which bits I need.

Would he have a set of black TC interior panels? Or a coupe headlining or rear parcel shelf?

Hi Bryan
There's not a lot of interior stuff there, the cars left have fairly rough interiors, so Im guessing no, but he does have some nice Aussie bits there, I'm thinking your car has pretty much everything to complete it. The coupe I bought has a dark blue, VERY basic interior and its an english assembled 1.8 in a very lowly spec. He has got interior lights tho, and since all of them are dust and bones over here I will get you one of those, he's also got a set of mags!!!! they need alloy welding as they've cracked around the studs (not serious, but needs doing!) I'm pretty sure their cosmics, but just remembered yours is Ford stud pattern doh!

Sounds like a 1.8 DL Coupe you've got there. You can count the number of known survivors on one or two fingers!

1.8 DL saloons are even rarer, don't know of any survivors

Excellent chaps! Hope you can make use of it all.

Ben

PS, Josh, have you got my 1.8 DL on that list?

Do you mean the Harvest coupe you had? Thought that was long gone?

Sounds like we need to catalogue the collection. How big a shed is it all in?

Hi Ben and Bryan, I will be there thursday to have a pick over and there is no shed it is all under a house, crawl space style apparently.

Oh there's a shed too, and two complete cars! Hand off my coupe Mike

Damask Red interior options :-
1972-73 Spanish Rose
1974-75 Navy or Mink
1976-77 Mink

Damask cars also came with Navy interiors

Pah looks like the deal on my coupe fell through! He keeps changing his mind I sort of guessed it might happen tho!!!
He's had it for 15 years and never fixed anything on it, but apparently he will, one day! Never heard that before!

Dam I left dat water pump behind in ya shed somewhere Ben.Keep an eye out for it
