Title: New purchase: 1978 450 SE
Post by: carl888 on 13 July 2018, 03:58 AM
Needed another car like a hole in the head, however this just followed me home.  I'd call it a 20' car.  Looks great from 20' but needs a mountain of work to recommission it.

Relatively low mileage at 109,500 kms.  No accident damage and most importantly, the previous owner had replaced all the firewall grommets and rubbers.  Garaged most of its life, it's luckily corrosion free....phew.

I'll throw up some pics as the work progresses, should be able to start around November this year.

Happy days.
