thats a good finds there Mr Flibb..
may get 2 cars out of that lot or one real good one.
Not a real lot better nick than the one out at Gawler but still good for spares if nothing else.
Hope you can get them for a fair price

Now that's some serious shrubbery! They may have been there for a while. But yeah, all pretty intact. It's nice when you get a tip that leads to a find. It looks like the late model has the stainless window frames (?) making it an imported Deluxe.
Reckon you oughta get 'em home!
Good work. Matt.

You are a very lucky man - I hope you find the time to piece together at least one good car out of the three.
Please post all the parts you will not be using
Cheers,
Neil

Thanks for the heads up gt orphanage. Alistair used to own the parts.
I have been in contact with the owner of the parts and he is happy to let most go for free/cheap to keep other belletts on the road

Hey Mr Fibbles, how'd the Bellett horticulture go? Any good results or were they all duds?

all 3 have been pulled out, mostly they are good for parts as the floors seem to be quite rotten, but at least averything salvageable of of the cars will be taken of and stored for when they are needed. just havent had time to go down and help strip them! but they will help a few more belletts live alot longer!
