I'm in Adelaide, few more details, 79 original rs, non matching motor. It has been fully restored by a previous owner, new paint, looks good but wont win a show and it has a few marks about the place from it being used as a daily driver by the previous owner. It has had new shocks, springs, bushes, fully retrimmed interior, superlites etc done a few years back. Engine has also been rebuilt a while back and runs well. Stock carby, lumpy cam, extractors and I have a brand new 38/38 DGMS to go on it. It drives real good. I am toying with the idea of selling it as I separated from the missus a while back and don't get too much time to use it, nor do I have the spare cash to "play" could we say as I also have a jetski and can only really afford one toy. I guess I have lost the passion I once had for it. As with all old cars, there is some maintenance required, I need to put a new fuel pump on it and replace a few fuel lines that look leaky, the voltage stabaliser is gone and some of the guages bounce around. The heater core needs replacing, but I do have a good woriking unit. Unregistered at the moment but with walk in rego in Adelaide.

There was a lovely orange 2 door RS with full leather interior that was for sale for $15,000 recently that looks to have sold in a day.  Sure need to be quick these days.  Off topic, but anyone here know it or buy it?

Thanks teeg I'm after a 2 door though. There is a thread on rs owners facebook page regarding that rs it has sold to someone from that club I believe. It's a tough one these days I've missed out on a few recently with ppl buying site unseen over the phone. Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable doing that without seeing the car myself first.

Cheers
