Wanted: FB sedan

Post by caz60b »

I am seriously shopping for an FB sedan. Preferably in WA. Preferably rego'd. Must be mechanically sound, not overly concerned about paint job or interior, although if all in good nick, all the better. I want this car for a daily driver, pride and joy, Love of my Life!" :heartt:
NO GAS please! Petrol only!
Looking to purchase within next 4 weeks.
Anyone interested in looking at Car in Peakhurst, Sydney, on carsales, please PM me. Payment would be in doors and bonnet lid if sale occurs!

It is an LPG that has been converted to petrol as a second tank, this worries me a little.
Yes, not fussed with the seats, hopefully new covers will fix that. The interior doesn't look too good, but hey, the price is good.
There are holes on the mud guards, from caravan mirrors, the mirrors are available to put on if I want....as if!!!
Yes I have spoken to the owner.
I'm worried that there is too much to do, as I would prefer to pay more for one in much better condition, I just can't find one!
If it's not too far from you and you are keen to view it, let me know and I will give you the owners number. I am keen, but if it's crap, I don't want to waste anyone's time. Thanks.

rack and pinion steering, instead of going to just a little trouble of getting something that looks decent people shove those horrid things in

gotta remember though it seems a cheap car for what it is, though distance is a big issue for you i know the feeling of wanting a car and then having that distance issue in the back of yor head
