Hey Spanner
I have been looking for a while.  1980 auto with prizes for outstanding restoration went for $6500 on ebay a couple of weeks ago. What do you want for yours?
What happened to rear bumper?
Cheers Gaza

Hi Gaza,
 
The car that went on ebay was a friend of mine, I was the one that done all the decals for it & even had some of my spares on it.
And with no disrespect to him I've spent a lot more than he has. I'm chasing twice as much as him.
What do you mean about the rear bumper?
 
Thanks
Tim

Looks like you spent a bit on it, a lot of your own free labour too - I bet  
Yours is a out of my budget then you've got to add transport on top.  If you ever drop your price give us a shout. A WA seller will come up one day. 
Photo from the rear looks like the bumper drops down out of line on the left - photos can distort though.
Cheers Gaza

I must amit that the photo's dont do this car justice. it is stunning, and would be a welcome addition to my garage if i had the room and coin. its one of the good ones left out there.

Beautiful looking car mate! If only I had the money!! I sold my first RS years ago.
Do you have the history of the car? Just interested.
Cheers Aaron.

Pls confirm current price ?  (Given it is a few months since first advertised)
