Hi,
My name is john and I used to own a John Goss Special. I sold it many years ago and I'm trying to track it down. It was built in OCT 75, JG65RU 47278K. It was emerald fire green, auto, single exhaust, original rego VIC IHT-115. The car was sold in Qld around 1999. Any help would be greatly appreciated. On another topic, this forum is outstanding, so many quality cars and knowledgable enthusiasts. Keep up the great work people. XB GT COUPE rebuild FTW, that car is amazing!!!!!!!!!! |

Welcome Carnige,
There's a few coupes on ebay at the moment, some good for the money, others not so. Be very weary, but as you can weld, anything is possible. Just have a look at Recoils XA Coupe project. |

G'day carnige, as said, check all all the coupes in the "project cars" section. That will give you a good idea what your in for!
It will also show you where to look for rust in the coupe's your looking at. Good luck. |
