Fellows,
Its high time I made a decision regarding the 76 2 door swallowtail race-car shell I have. Its been hanging around in my parents paddock for about 2 years, it was in my front yard for about 2 years before that, and with new familt commitments and house renovations to get into I can't keep it like this any longer - it needs to be brought inside now and restored soon.
What is it I am offering here? Basically its a bare shell, 72 2 door swallowtail. It has all panels, and is very straight. It needs 2 new doors unless you are a keen welder, but basically the body is sound apart from the doors.
about 4-5 years ago, mollins and I started work on it, stripped and painted the shell
(no doors, hatch or wings). Since then nothing has happened.
Previous to me having hte car, it had a rollcage welded in and the front floors welded up. It only has a half cage at the moment.
It would be a mammoth effort to get it back to a road car, but certainly not impossible. Better would be to build a race car out if it, as you could do as much or as little work as you liked. Its got all its suspension, and a steeing rack. The bay is empty and has been painted.
I dont have any current photo's yet, but I will try to get some soon. The car is currently on the mid-north coast. I will bring it back to sydney area (central coast) and deliver it (within reason) at no charge, if I get some token money for the car.... shall we start at $250...?
Here are a couple of photos of it back in the day:
just before it was painted red
as it was when mollins aquired it
its a bit worse than the above photo now.
