I'm so tempted, but the Mrs will cut "them" off if I get this

Could you pretend you are storing it for a mate? And when pressed to get shot just keep saying "yeah, he said next weekend, honest love"

[xkjagnz]

Probably not - but she is going to the UK for 3 weeks soon - do you reckon I could get it roadworthy in that time!!!!!!

Piece o piss - my Chevy's only been in (two different) garages for 17 years and counting.  The house move was due to getting divorced - I kept the Chevy though.

Oh yeah no problem. Look at Car S.O.S or Classic Car Rescue, they always seem to manage. Just shave your head, walk about in a huff shouting "bladdy 'ell Mawio" every five seconds and it will be right as rain just before some twat in red trousers pops in to declare it worth a gazillion dollars. That's what happens on TV, right?

 

Looking at the ad I am guessing you are in NZ?

[DodgeRover]

Are the plates still live? If so I'm sure* you could get a WOF in 3 weeks

Looking at my username I would guess so !!

I know a couple of people who would probably give me a WOF as is!!

Recently bought a 96 V4 which I'm restoring and I love it; the shape and design of the old hunchbacks has really grown on me (ahem)

My mate owns a 1965 2 stroke which has a lot of appeal but it is a less practical proposition.

Just do it!!!

[Parky]

She might even like it! Ultimately, literally nobody on here is going to dissuade you from getting it so you might as well start clearing a space in the garage and arrange a collection date with the seller. We all know that's where this is going!

 

Tell her they are worth a bloody fortune in Europe or something and it's a better investment than a retail unit in Auckland - and that's true as a stranger on the internet said so. Then you are doing it to make money to buy her shiny things because she is so awesome, etc etc

[xkjagnz]

She has lots of shiny things already among them an S class Merc and lots of jewellery . I on the other hand have a shed

Are you sure you're not British?

[xkjagnz]

I am indeed British - I emigrated to "sunny" NZ in 2007 _BTW It's pissing down here at the mo

[DodgeRover]

Just do it, you can always say sorry later or it's always been in the shed, didn't you see it before etc
