What's betting the guy selling it doesn't even know that it's a UZZ32?

Pity I'm no where near Gisborne or have space to keep it.

Nice wheels actually. Too bad it has paint wear. On a slightly related note, i saw my old Soarer about 10 minutes ago in Hamilton. I sold it 3-4 years ago looking like this:

The car was freshly resprayed white, basically perfect condition. Now, it has two horrid black stripes painted through the centre of the car, with a shopping list ALL over the side of it. Very upsetting to see. Who does that! Wish i took a pic with my iPhone before i turned off, it was truly a disgrace.

Good spotting Mark, I wonder how much he thinks he'll get for it.

Looks like a mammoth UZZ32 project...

Lets face it, theres probably been ZERO work done on the suspension its whole life... or at least since its been in NZ...

Whats a full active suspension restoration worth? Somewhere between 5-10k?

Interesting (also sad) that he bought it just for the engine - little did he know the UZZ32 motor had the big pumps and what not on the front for the suspension - that would have been a headache for any conversion!

I just rang the guy to ask some questions.. only went to answer phone, with a indistinguishable answer phone recording. Sigh!

Very sad.

I know at least 2 of my Soarers are written off, one is in a degraded state and the other, who knows!

Oh well, at least they are getting rarer I suppose, and with all the boy-racer junked ones sitting in scrappers, it's pretty easy to get parts now.
