The car has 228,787 ks on it, but the engine was rebuilt 3 and a half years ago along with the diff, so Im thinkin that might help it a lot - would I be right? Hence the not so much need for a complete rebuild? Or am I wrong..
Re the rust, we havent got RACQ to do a check on it yet, but from what we've looked at the only two spots of rust are yes - above the front windscreen, for memory regarding the 'size' probably not much bigger then a car key, but there are two spots.
From what the BF has said so far, the way to go would be popping out the windscreen, grinding it down and then respraying the paint. He's estimated about 2 grand to allow for it - Im not sure about it at all.
Im still really leaning toward getting this car though, Im prepared to shell out the cash for fix ups, and the interior and exterior (aside from rust) is kept -immaculate-. The specs are posted in earlier posts so I wont repeat them again, but yeah.
BUt really the only two problems atm is the rust and there's also a bit of smokey exhaust (engine problem) though its hardly noticeable..
Below is a "report" the BF did up:
REPORT: 1) build date:- 05/86
2) engine rebuilt 3 1/2 years ago
3) diff rebuilt 5 years ago
4) Vic plates
5) Vic rego until 07/07/05
6) slight rust around front windscreen
7) front brake pads require replacement
 RACQ inspection pending
(Vig rego and plates is in there because Im in Queensland, hence Ill need to change that).
We've tried to do up a further report regarding my budget (roughly 15 grand), but to be honest I havent explored the pricing options on some things yet.
BTW - how much is stamp duty? Isnt it like 2% of the purchase price?...
Cost of Vehicle: $6,500
Replace Head Gaskets (Including Machining): Allow $1000
Removal of Rust (Panel Beating): Allow $2000
Upgrade of Brakes: $500
Insurance through NRMA (the cheapest I could find): $3,300 full comprehensive
Registration (For QUEENSLAND): Allow $600
Piston Ring Kit: $500
RACQ Vehicle Inspection: $200
Personal Funds: $400
Stamp Duty: ..
Comments please? Im querying just about everything

you are correct. You shouldnt need to touch the motor at all unless its playing up!
