LH for sale

FOR SALE

Hi, I have an LH Torana sedan here for sale I thought I would offer here before ebay.
It is a 77 model and has a 173hp engine and a 3 speed auto trimatic
It would require a light restoration to be perfect.
Colour is white with brown interior and 6 seats. Dash has been painted blue but could be removed.
It is currently unregistered (since Nov) but should pass for new rego as it has had the brake pads checked and 4 new retreads fitted.There is a large dent in the back left hand door but I have another one in the same colour from the wreckers which will come with the car (I am unable to fit it). It has 324000kms, which I think for it's age isn't too bad. It does have some rust around the windscreens but this has been filled with silicone and painted over to stop any leaks. It has a near new sony sound system with ipod conect and a 200w power amp into 6 speakers, this will only be included if my price is met to within $500.
This car was my daily driver until I bought a VL Commodore recently so I let this run out of rego. It has been very reliable and a bit of a head turner. I am aware it is a classic and this is partly reflected in my price. I need it sold by January 15 to pay for repairs and modifications on my VL. I am asking $7500 or near offer. I am located in Melbourne. You can call me on 0435743198.
Thanks, Terry.

Note: This car can be driven on P plates.

Whoa dude, for that cash we are going to need photo's.

The silicone and dodgy paint job around the windows doesn't sound good as silicone will promote rust. Sounds like it needs a full bare metal resto...not a light one.

Good luck with the sale.

324000kms?

I wouldn't say that's good for it's age.

My sunbird has 115000kms.

THAT'S good for it's age.

Retreads, dent, siliconed rust holes and unregistered.

Don't need photos to tell you it's overpriced.

I thought LH torana's only had the 5 digit odometer...ie; max km's of 99,999 and then she resets. (or it may be the early LH's???)

Anyways..if so, this car could have an LX dash so there is no way of knowing how many km's the old chook has done :)

It matters not though, too much cash.

Unregistered, dents, rust , silicone filled and a lowly 173!. I would think without seeing it that $1500 would be a more sensible starting price.( if it has silicone filled rust holes it's not a light resto ! )

LH is 74-76.
Considering that I paid $10K for my rust free SLR 5000, you are asking too much.

Best to remain silent and appear a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
There are a few different types of SLR's, including a 3.3

Sounds like a pretty rare/odd SLR 3300, since it (apparently) has a brown 6 seater bench seat interior, and a 173ci/Traumatic drivetrain.
On the limited description made available, $7500 sounds like it's about 7.5 times the fair market value of this "stuffed about" LH/LX 76/77 bitsa Torana.

HK'ing.
