XY GT 4 SALE.

I had some photos of Archies car sent through to look at. It needs some work to get on the road but it is a geniune GT and at that price a considerable bargain.
It is quite simple really, if you dont have the money available you dont bid or committ to buying something. That way no one gets upset.
Unfortunately everybody selling muscle cars of all kinds will experience this in some form or another, frustrating. I know from experience.

Good luck with the sale

cheers

To me the thing with a car like Archie's car is that you know what you're getting. A fresh coat of paint on a good looking car can hide a lot of trouble. A least you know what you're up for.
The only down side for me is that it has the engine out of auto car as well as the transmission(please correct me if i'm wrong) but at the price he's chasing it is still a good buy for the right person.

Car is finally sold.!

Just a quick question for Gonzo though.

(The only down side for me is that it has the engine out of auto car as well as the transmission(please correct me if i'm wrong) but at the price he's chasing it is still a good buy for the right person.)

Where the engines different between an Auto car and a Manual car ??? and if so , why wasnt i told.!?
and if not where did you get that information from ??:)

Cheers..Archie

Congratulations on the car being sold. Hopefully you got what you were after.

A friend of mine was interested in your car and had asked you some questions.

You supplied the answers including the engine number. It was FVA ???X. If that is the correct number then that engine prefix is for a car with auto and power steering.
My friend was after a "matching numbers" car.

Here's the list of XY GT Engine Numbers:
FJ: Manual, No options
FW: Manual, A/C
FU: Manual, Power Steering
FY: Manual, A/C + Power Steering
FTA: Automatic, No options
FXA: Automatic, A/C
FVA: Automatic, Power Steering
FZA: Automatic, A/C + Power Steering

Your friend still looking Gonz? Mine is matching numbers

Cheers

Yes i've mentioned yours. Hoping to get something closer. They're in the auto trade so a car that needs work is not a problem.

The curse of living in Darwin strikes again

hehe, all good...

P.S. I reckon it would cost about $1000 to get a car out of Darwin to Sydney/Melbourne with a good carrier. Much less than it costs to get them in!

hey Paul

it might be worth seeing if one of the guys here could store it in a more central location for you
might help you move it a bit quicker
(id offer but im a bit out of the way)

cheers

Central ... like Alice Springs? :lol:

It's a good idea, I think. Thanks for the advice and the offer, if I get to the point where I *need* to sell it's certainly worth considering...

Cheers
