Rare bird takes flight at classic car auction in Queensland

www.carsales.com.au

Final bid was $300,909, add on another 7% for the auction house. Not bad for a $7000 car in 1971. It's going to need another 100-150K to get it looking nice.

A pic from back in the day. My Dad with my 68 Plymouth Roadrunner. Even with an automatic, it would leave rubber when shifting into 2nd gear. Friends said I got screwed when I paid $3200 new for it. They're over 60,000 now when you can find a decent one. Left most of my pay on the books in Viet Nam and paid it off when I came home. Traded it for a 66 Corvette roadster. 325 horse 327. Cars I should have kept is like guns I should have kept... but I didn't.

This sums up what they are, most microvans are in the same line as kei trucks. I would love me a Subaru Sambar van, they came out supercharged from factory.

A film to show some of the latest four wheel drive Humber vehicles in use with H.M Forces which are built primarily for roads. But, because of their special design, the vehicles can take to open country when necessity demands. The film explains some of their limitations and capabilities when they leave the road.

Those are everywhere down south of here. They buy them in pieces in Japan and reassemble them here and convert them from right to left hand drive.

the biggest rip off in the car industry is Electric cars ...

A train is more of a authentic form of Electric powered transport as it runs from a direct current unlike cars where it has to rely on battery . And when you buy a Rechargeable bike light its never marketed as a Electric powered light ..
