For you guys and gals in North America (or Europe for that matter), the shipping will be a killer - this wagon's in AUSTRALIA.......
Actually if you can get past the cost of the car, shipping isnt that bad, you are looking between 3 to 4K. Considering the car is in tomorrow evening, here on the east coast of the USA, thats reasonable. I may have a Falcon Ute hitting the water soon.
Yeah, That would be of aid to the sale; Spray-on tire shine works pretty well. I've used some cans of it and both have been of aid; I even sprayed some old truck tires that had at least four years' worth of dust on them and then WHOOSH, they were looking shiny!
I wondered when this one would surface. I found this car on ebay here in Australia I think for a buy it now price of $15,000 last March, after I had just returned back from the US and just after driving my 76 across the country. I may have looked at this one if my 76 did not come up when it did but this is not a cheap car. By the time my car arrives it will owe me around $17,000 but it will also have a new coat of paint and new wood and it is a much more loaded CE (except for the 454) than this one. It is funny that my first preference was always a 73 CE with 454 and full power gate, and there was one here sitting under my nose all along, go figure! But I have a healthy respect for the 76 CE now though!
It was better than dollar for dollar for us only a couple of years ago, but now you guys are back front. $18,000 aud will cost you a tad less than $16,000 usd at the moment. Cheers Mike
