Thinking about parting ways with my Project

Call me for details..........RAJ @ 789-0000
or email rmongru@tstt.co.tt

located in South

The response thus far has been overwhelming so I'll give some added info.

This project was started about five years ago, body job, mechanical, suspension etc completed. I have accomplish a lot with the restoration.

The vehicle is registered PU and is road worthy, ask anyone present at the V8boys car show in May at Skinner Park. It has a 1275 cc engine and gearbox, riding on 10" rims and tyres and yes its ole skool, so don't expect power steering, power windows, air condition or fuel injected.

All restoration project takes alot of time, effort, energy, dedication, commitment and MONEY, this was no exception, While I appreciate that I cannot recover the amount I've invested into this project, I'm willing to take a hit, as such I looking at $35,000 negotiable.

Its easier for me to reply via email or to phone calls than via pms on Trinituners.

Thanks again.
