Barn Find Tassie

[Asroc66]

Greetings from the Apple Is
One beautiful Gold '67 has mad an appearance plus a blue 66 'spares car'
The Gold is a one owner with about 35k miles
Engine turns by hand and can feel compression
No rust rear quarters
Straight panels
Deluxe model
4 speed floor manual
After market High back seats
Could easily be a runner (last started 15 yrs ago and garaged/container/shed since)
Small rat attack under bonnet and interior

66 is an outside car origionally
Roached rear quarters and driver's door
Rats have gone to town in it

Would also be a goer but more love required than goldie

Located north of Launceston
Currently on gumtree

Package deal

I have seen them and love them
Just haven't to coinage or room ATM

Cheers

At a minimum need all new brakes, fuel and brake lines, master cylinder sleeve, all chrome pitted, interior resto, replace seats, door cards eaten by mice, driveline service etc etc etc but body and paint are great

Hi all,
I just spoke with Steve and both sound awesome, especially the gold one!
As I’m located in the Barossa Valley in SA and am currently racking my brain on how practical it could or would be to have these transported over here especially being that the brakes would almost certainly be seized... Just wondering if anyone would have any suggestions on how to get both of them here (maybe you might have sourced a similar car from the mainland in reverse)?
Thanks Asroc66 for posting it in the forum, I’ve only just started looking for my father-In-Law and as his first car was also a gold coloured ‘67 sedan and now that he’s retired, he wants to relive his youth and is super keen on getting another!!
Cheers,
Daz.

is the paint original colour? The boot seems to be white in the wheel wells area, not in the actual load area.

I dunno glenn the left hand side in the boot looks white could be reflection under the bonnett is all gold I reckon shes a genuine beast shame its in Tassie but good for the local guys james would know the costs of transporting hes the man on the job there cheers davo

She's all gold
Could have stared in 'Goldfinger'
Boot perfect.... u r seeing the shine of excellent paint
Even the bolts have undisturbed paint on them
Real peach

It's a shame it's in Tassie. Nothing against Tassie, but buying and shipping both cars, would be a nightmare, not to mention expensive. Even one, unless one could get it running and brakes working etc.

Looks like gold one has been sold
Seen on a familiar trailer too?
Looks like waiting for the ferry at Devonport ? Or is that Mt Wellington in Hobart?
So, cough up
Who's the lucky new owner?

So the gold has gone.

Is the blue still available.

It looks rather similar to the vehicle that started the NSW Bellett Car Club.
If it could be traced back to these days it would be a rather interesting vehicle to get back into the club.

It may not be the same vehicle but it looks rather similar.

Any updates on this vehicle would be great.

Cheers Kev.
