price for hilux with 37" boggers and 308

Post by **charles** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 7:37 pm

looking at a play truck has got the following parts and just after others opinions on the price and whether or not it would be a good play truck as i have very limited experience with 4x4, possibly thinking of registering it as well.

Any feedback is muchly appreciated.

82 model single cab hilux ute.
Tjm shocks? and extended shackles
spring over conversion
body lift
37 inch boggers on beadlocked rims 80% tread
rock hoppin style bar
rock hoppin style tray and roll bar
detroit locker rear diff
power steering
neat interior with newer model bucket seats
308 holden donk with 4 barrel(Mark's adapter kit)
dual exhausts
PVC snorkel
tints
tray mounted radiator with thermo's
turbo 350 auto

It looks like a pretty tough truck but the gearbox is shagged and requires replacement(ie it won't drive at all, means no test drive) so not sure what I should be paying for it. It was registered up until recently but i am thinking that it wouldn't pass without some dramas mainly cos the 308 is on petrol and the huge tyres/beadlocks but I really know nothing,so not sure.

Thanks in advance

do you mean that it is only worth around 1000$$$ that sounds pretty cheap.

i would say around 5000$, any first gen lux i have seen for 1000 or less are either in need of repair, or far from road worthy and needs alot of work, OR a complete bargain, and they are always in stock form for that price

He is asking around 6k neg and will be used in ACT.

Regarding the engineers cert apparently it has one but it doesn't come with the truck? said the original owner still has it? sounds strange to me.

What is cert worth to cover the engine & susp mods.
