Just after a tidy carry.

I dont particualy have a price in mind, as I feel I'll be lucky to find any within range!
But with that I am in Vic and would be prepared to travel for a good deal.

Thanks.

I've bought a couple of parts car's @ pickles & done pretty well from them. The tx5 hatch was cheap & lots of good bits, but the ED factory 5spd wasn't so cheap, but everything was in top shape it was still a good buy....

How did you go Frankgos?

Cheers

I wish I could say that I killed it but I tapped out, shaking my head at a very disappointing $850. :x

I do appreciate the value of the Super Carry's but my knowledge is dismal on them. I would guess an average carry van would fetch any where around $1500+, Yeah?? but I didn't have enough banked and didn't want to put us put for the week for it either.

I was pushing to make it on time. It was lot 16 and I rocked in at 14, so pretty much no time to have a look. Had a quick scan but I had already put dibs on it and didn't think I would have much competition for it but I was wrong!
A bloke and his son picked it up for $1100 I think. Fruit and Veg van for sure
:evil:
I just was not meant to be I guess.
There is another one around somewhere with my name on it..

Any one see that beat up Carry in Bendigo on eBay?
There is another one on there in NSW that is MINT AS on eBay as well but its too much for me!! Like more than my GTi cost me so that's not gonna happen!

I am going to knock on someones door tomorrow. I saw a carry van in their yard last year and I'm hoping it has just been moved around the back!! Maybe I'll get lucky and he'll be keen to sell!.
You never know!

Holden Scurry is like the Barina is to Swifts - swap the badges and nobody would know.

Badge engineering at it's best.... lol.

I bet most people would think it's a suzuki before seeing the holden badge on it anyway.

Ok... So excuse my ignorance here...
What are the major differences between a "carry" & a "super carry"? :-o
(Being a MB owner & all...)

So the adventure continues...
