Made the trip up to Perth yesterday to pick up my 1275 for the sunshine and the car I was stripping was full of new, in boxes parts. I paid $500 for the car and inside it had a new set of flares, spotlights, speedo cable, brake master cylinder all brand new plus a good interior. The motor was supposed to be reconditioned but it only had a reconditioned head, I am still waiting for a mate to check the state of the rings, hopefully ok. I even got a carton of amber ale for the rolling chassis from A guy on Ausmini who is going to build a mid motorcycle (yamaha R!) engined vehicle.

Mate, people are paying that much for just a rebuildable 1275 block!

Good score Ben.
