Bennetts always advertise with low reserve "guides" To get the punters in I think.

Guess they forgot that when they valued the 4 door, I'd say that's top end for that

It isn't that nice for the money. Thought someone may know the owner its been in and out of bennets for at least 18 months.

If that car sells for 25k plus the 7% its a bargain. Ive been tracking GTRs for a while and I would think that should sell for around 29-32k based on shannons auction results as well as prices going round.

 

Pictures can be deceiving also. It looks very clean to me (cant see any faults), just my 2c

I went and looked at it over a month ago. To me the price looked right for the condition IF it was a real GTR. It may well be, but someone has fiddled with the plates (both plates at the front right, it's a 1970 model) which conveniently you can't see in the engine bay shot. I have a photo of them though. Also the engine number stamping looks a bit odd, no photo of that unfortunately.

Yeah, the plates are deffinately suss, although I think holden in the day manufactured them out of discarded chicken packs the metal is so soft they damage easily. Wouldn't bother me buying a mock up but that car

has got a bit of filler in it new door skins etc etc. But for the right price its a neat looking car, be nice to know what the owner is actually after without all the bennets tax. Love sebring orange.
