Default Purchased a new car today!

Scored myself a 1990 NA fairlane off ebay.
Used the buy now option rather than bidding as once I made a bid the buy now option dissapeared & chances are it may have sold for more than $1400. I would like peoples opinions of the car & the price paid. I think it was a good buy as I sold my last NA Fairlane that I bought for $1800 with less rego and it never had a LPG conversion.

My current car (VL commodore) is due for rego in 12 days ($600) and I was wanting to convert it to LPG ($2500 +) so I figured I could kill 2 birds with the 1 stone by buying this. Plus it gets me back into luxury motoring :P

So what do you think?

Yeah, Will be replacing the motor with an EL 4.0 engine, so the K's didn't bother me much. The fact that this already had long rego + LPG + power options was a deffinate decider for me to sell off my commodore and get stuck into this.
