Thanks to dcstraight for bringing it to my attention
It was for sale on Gumtree, had been listed for various amounts over the last 12 months, but recently had a big price drop.
flights booked to cairns with intentions to buy... regardless of what was wrong with it
Picked up from the airport by an EL GT, handed the keys and off i went.
Was extremely surprised by the condition of it, it had been looked after, despite the ~140,000km's
the important bits.
EL GT
Heritage Green
Auto
Sunroof
Powerdyne Supercharger
bigger camshaft
modified extractors
3000rpm stall
there are some issues that need to be fixed to make it closer to 100%
current tune isnt great, i'm assuming its based on TPS only as there is no MAF.
Steering wheel needs recovering, i'll likely get it retrimmed, or swap the one from DTHWGN since its in better condition.
engine bay paint is horrible, has been sprayed at some point but the clear has reacted and needs redoing.
2 centrecaps missing
shifter handle is wrong one
Only got a handful of photos of it at the moment, some of it from when i purchased it.
I plan on getting some nicer photos this weekend.
When it was for sale:
As it was prior to driving home
In Palm Cove
First fillup in Gordonvale
Stopped for sleep in Bowen
3000km later
