Hey guys I’m looking at selling my Ke20, I’ve just got too many cars and I’m in need of some cash as I’m in a little debt.
Body:
Exterior is very good for age, very very litte rust in her, drivers side guard at the base is the worst, apart from that only very small patches and surface rust. It has a few dents down the side lines from shopping trolleys etc but nothing major. The paint has been rubbed back to flat as that’s the look I wanted, it can be polished back to original no worries at all. I have just put new chrome moldings on the arches and put a bumper strip along the side that looks great. Chrome work is very good and bumpers are very straight, trims look great also. SLO-020 plates come with the car and I’ve just put on a brand new set of mudflaps that I found in the shed, their 40 years old!!
Interior:
Originally brown interior I have put a bit of work into making it look the goods! I have changed the interior to a black set, front seats are near perfect apart from a the stitching coming undone on the driver’s seat. Trims are great, rear seat is good but has a little cracking on the top. The dash has been painted original canary yellow recently. Dash pad is currently removed and I’m running bare frame painted black, the car does come with the dash pad and a dash mat to cover a couple cracks if the buyer chooses. Venetian blind is fitted too. Carpet is in good condition for age with some black floor mats.
Mechanics:
The old 3K is still going strong, blows a little smoke here and there but it will probably run forever. I have a spare 3K that has been rebuilt 6000km ago that can also go with the car if the buyer chooses so. The gearbox feels good, no play or crunches, diff is great, and front end feels better than any other ke20 I have owned. Overall it drives absolutely fantastic and puts all my previous ke20’s to shame. It has been lowered but nothing extreme, it’s quite a comfortable ride with minimal bounce. Exhaust sounds fantastic on this 3k too, nothing too loud.
Overall a great car! Could be used as a daily as its great on fuel, a weekend cruiser as it looks damn cool or a great project car if someone wanted to fix one of these up with minimal work involved and little to spend.
Looking at $3000ono with spare rebuilt 3k and 4 speed or less without.
Call me on 0431 290 861 or PM me here
P.S. sorry about shit pictures, will be updated soon with much much better pictures.
