That place always seems to have Toranas for sale at top dollar.
They're usually good looking cars but optimistically priced.

Yeah, that's the strangest looking auto shifter I've ever seen. Maybe the air cleaner lid stickers are wrong too and it's a 308/4-speed.
Hoses from wiper motor to washer nozzles are missing too.
10 grand less and would be a good buy.

HZ didn't get that type of w/washer pump. The HZ one is the continuous type mounted under the bottle.Originally Posted by Big Rob
There are too many things wrong with that car for $40K.
No console lid & a crook steering wheel is not a good look.
Where are the heater hoses, it probably needs a new heater core.
Also part of the alternator bracket is missing.

Not to mention non original engine.
I personally don't agree with comments that its good for us if they start commanding these types of $$ or more if 308/completely correct. Whilst these prices may be good if you're getting out of the hobby and can recoup your resto cost, believe me, from living through the Monaro price surge 10 years ago it makes it tough to restore a car once the prices have jumped. Every part seller or spare parts car is also worth 10x what it used to be worth and as a result resto costs go way up. And as a result take longer to save up coin
I tend to agree. You just outlay more money everywhere. It's like the wedding industry. Add 50% just because of the word wedding. Add 50% because of the word Sandman (that's increasing costs at all points).
Way to much for the state that the van is in
I might offer them 10 grand and then point out all those things. They will of course, laugh at me and sell it to someone without our collective knowledge for a high price.

Good call on the rear marker lamps..... I didn't notice that and I've got a WB!

l think its worth it even though it has missing arm rest needs steering wheel to be painted give there black outs abit more lift etc etc think about it not gunna cost an arm and leg to fix latter on time will pay off in the end
