Derwin.
Shame on you at least we know the difference between a 66 and 67. Same as for a 71 as a 73. Know harm intended;*;*

I am looking to buy soon and I looked at a 71 the other day. There is a good chance it will be the one that I get.

Thanks guys, haven't worked out how to put pics up yet but here is the link

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120596594357&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

It didn't sell so I contacted the seller. It was complianced & rwc today. I wish I could take tomorrow off work to get it registered but I can't so it will have to be Friday.

If anybody needs their car complianced I reckon Dave Walsh is great.

Thanks for all the comments. It is a beauty and I love it :smile01:

I now know what it is like to be a celebrity. Everywhere I go people stare at it, wave, nod at me, come over and talk about it, it is amazing.

I drove it to work yesterday and I spent half the day showing it off to everyone. They all wanted to look at it and sit in it and listen to it:drool:

I must admit though that it was a real b*tch to drive home in the rain we had yesterday. It is pretty easy to drive normally but with the rain it was sitting on the back window so I couldn't see out and the little passenger side window was covered in rain drops so it was virtually useless as well.:smile02:

Anyway I still love it :thumb:

Hi Steve,

Don't know how it will go on your rear and side glass but have you considered using RAIN-X (the liquid you apply to glass, not the wiper/washer additive).

Worth its weight in gold on the windscreen, especially for heavy Queensland downpours.

Maybe it will help?
