Whats for sale (in Australia ) and interesting Thread


Recommended Posts

For those looking at the SC

The white SC , has rust in wings , headlamp areas , crazing down the near side wing and paint falling off

Top of near side door also , some kind of mould on the paint surface on bonnet , maybe from a tarp.

It also has badly scuffed seats and I think a cracked dash, aftermarket steering wheel

Import RHD , probably out UK

Mehanically ok but has been stored 2 years, unknown Service history, seems a little rich for that price… probably a good car at a much lower price….I think we are all looking at the good side

Have fun

Oh

the Q is why not sold

 

non-matching numbers, forward-dated car that will cost more to put back to original (re-back-date?) than the asking price 

 

Wow...  Rob would know the market but I wonder how he can put such an inflated price on  his car over the other 2 that have not sold in all these months?  Is he just trying it on to see if he can get it?

 

It's the, "if i whack a huge price tag on it, it will seem rare and appealying" theory

 

 

This SC looks nice...

I bet it's sold by dinner tomorrow!

77 SC? Computer says "no"

 

 

Couple of cars on this site. The 3.2 is back on because finance fell though apparently. Haven't seen any of these

Nice Roller - would be sweet with an LS engine swap

I wonder if Clinton is sitting on a 77 C3.o and doesn't know it?

45k is still to high if it is a C3.o, given symsy's discription. Only IMO of course.

 

all else being equal, C3s command a premium over SCs, no?

for 16k it could be anyone's kind of car - is this ridiculously cheap because it is likely to be a shit box, or is this the market rate for these cars?

It is far from ridiculously cheap.

Can range from $3k ish for a decent one (6 cylinder) up to $10k/ $15k with maybe $20k for a pristine one.

A 6.3 V8 (w109) will be $20k up to $30k odd. So at $16k it is priced in the upper end, and may well be worth it.

I have bought 3 over the years - $150 parts car, $1300 fixer and the only one I have registered at the moment for $3000 plus I spent a bit more, it is far from pristine but goes well and has no rust (these can rust a lot!) Paint in places is ordinary. 60's Mercs are really cheap in Aus. All mine are 2.5 6s and 66 or 67.

For what you spend you get a lot of car!!

Historically yes.

My thinking of why 45K is to dear for this car is if it needs a 30k paint job, 10k retrim and a good service then we are talking Oz Delivered money unless prices have gone up again. It has been 5minutes since I lasted looked.

Is there any VIN and engine number details available to properly identify?

I bet there will be a few cheap cars on the market out of sydney advertised with a good clean headlining next week , if they have been left out in that rain and the floods like the ones in surry hills .

 

I have my car on high ground !!!
