Just did the deal on a 94 std 80 series with 204k h/d springs winch bar with hi lift points,scrub bars,side steps, winch,watertank,gme3200 2 way,rear fridge socket, white
wheels 2 spares and near new tyres (crap toyo ats). body was pretty good with a couple of minor dings/scrapes and some very minor rust in a couple of spots around the back windows. The vehicle ran warm during the test drive so I had the radiator inspected and after he pulled it out determined it was on the way out with blockages and a few leaks so I negotiated him down further to 12600. The vehicle drove really
well with no oil leaks. I picked out a few things that needed attention but I should be able to get it up to A1 condition and fully serviced with 12 months rego for around 15k (worst case) and any left over I can spend on acc. So this will mean bye bye to my campervan that has been great but has been to big for the tight bush tracks around the Goldfields and s/e coast and I should have a vehicle that will take me to all the
places I could only previosly reach in the work vehicles

never been into detecting looks too much like fishing - you know 000k worth of gear and for all the gold you find seems like jusk an excuse to go out bush. And no I will definitly not be trating it like the work vehicles as my previos job involved pounding brand new cruisers to within an inch of their lives. However I liked the white coulour and less than pristine paint job on this cruiser as it wont have me in tears after the first tight goldfields bush track. I will be free to go to the
places my 2.7m high campervan could never go
