Austat Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Ah, Alfa GTVs. A car of my childhood. There was a bloke who lived across the road from my old primary school who had a GTV (perhaps even two, it was a while ago) and I recall one lunch break I saw him get into his red GTV, only to have starting issues for a good 15 minutes before he gave up and decided to walk instead. I passed the same area recently and the car is still there and looking quite cosmetically healthy. This one on the other hand doesn't look to be as in good shape: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Alfa-Romeo-GTV6-Alfetta-Barn-Find-Spares-or-Repairs-Classic/124676438018?hash=item1d074b7802:g:Z-8AAOSwZmdgcyZp Shite Ron, outlaw118 and SteersWithThrottle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Been wasting time looking at Craiglist for cars in other countries I can't house, as you do. This Mercury Capri with a 2.8 V6 turbo conversion might be of interest to @danthecapriman: Smacks of good value at a shade less than £4400. https://boise.craigslist.org/cto/d/eagle-1976-mercury-capri-speed-v6-turbo/7301456556.html And on the yellow theme, this is far less of a bargain but I can't resist an early W126 in one of the bright solid colours they offered them in: This comes a close third behind the avocado green and the ultimate bright orange I've seen these in. Bonus points for jarringly contrasting blue trim, too: https://rapidcity.craigslist.org/cto/d/rapid-city-1981-mercedes-benz-380-sel/7291952524.html Schaefft, michael t, gm and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 But I literally cannot shake off this one, after encountering its existence a good few hours ago: A 1970 Galaxie XL, untouched and with some quite juicy extras, including those most excellent trims. Shit a brick! I'll admit I do find the very tail end a little bit of a let down, after the hooded lamps up front and the buttressed C pillars. But I'm sure I could learn to live with it. *audible gasp from the Antipodes* Even the Stereosonic tape system ($134.00) is woodgrain covered. So what price a single family owned, 51 year old Ford V8 coupe with 44000 miles on the clock? £6377. Or about the same as a 4 door MkII Escort, I imagine. https://boise.craigslist.org/cto/d/fruitland-1970-ford-galaxy-xl-429/7301466725.html Asimo, eddyramrod, MisterH and 18 others 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austat Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Continuing the American theme, I found this '76 Lincoln for around 5 bags. What's surprising is that this car is in Japan. It's currently in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture which is right next to Tokyo, which seems like the most challenging place to own one of these. Very much a car for the adventurous type. https://yahoo.aleado.com/lot?auctionID=v791016047 Schaefft, garethj, MorrisItalSLX and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
