Trying not to get too EXCITED!!!!

[TotalDriver]

No, this is not an ad for NASAL DELIVERY!!

I'm getting a bit excited, I promised myself I wouldn't until I get it, but I had to tell someone....

As you may or may not know, I have been up until all hours of the morning for the past few weeks trawling the Internerd looking for an XA Coupe to restore over time with my sons.

Well, spoke to a mate last night who happens to know where one is, in a guys shed. The guy received it a few years ago as payment for work done but wants to offload it as it doesn't really interest him - being a Holden man!

My mate rang his mate this morning who is away on holidays for the next week. He spoke with him for a few secs and the guys confirms it's still in his shed and I can have it for $1000.

I hear you thinking - "That's great Mike, you finally found an XA Coupe for a grand - good luck with it". Well, maybe so but it does get better.



It's a 351, FMX Auto, 4 Wheel Disc Brake ALL NUMBERS MATCHING GENUINE GT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The motor is the original GT Engine but has shat itself. It still runs but has severe bottom end noises!

Like I said, trying not to get toooooo excited until it's in MY shed.

I'll have to travel a bit with the car trailer to pick it up, but it's worth it.

I'm bouncing off the walls here, can't believe I've found my Dream Car for the Dream Price!

Anyway, I will compose myself and somehow get through the next week. I will let y'all know when she's in my shed.

Thanks to everyone who has helped my recently to try and find one, especially "fiery" and "eav8".

Cheers,
