Mate recently bought a Subaru SVX from pickles in Adelaide.
Has small front end damage and a bent right lower control arm. These cars went for near 70g when new. Got this one for $1800. Will make nice spare parts for his rally car, or fix it up and sell it on. |

Saw that the other day, lol.
I was at the wreckers a few weeks ago, and there was an AU ute shell, couldnt really tell what it was, I worked it out from the interior. Needle was off the clock.

Ok, who owned this one?

Or perhaps a convertible ute?
Had a car dumped outside my house that looked like that a few years back. Had been stolen to order.
