1994 Lada Niva, Melbourne

[Sheldon McIntosh]

I foolishly bought a Lada Niva sight unseen, believing it to be a 1989.  Unfortunately it's a 94, so I can't use it.

Pretty much rust-free, just a couple of spots under one window, and the tailgate is probably beyond repair.

Has hit a curb pretty hard, needs a couple of new suspension components (priced them at about $50 total from a Russian website).

Engine seems to work, but needs a new throttle cable.

Just after what it owes me, $400.  But, I need it gone this week, so $350 will probably sway me....  Otherwise, it goes to scrap, which would be a shame, 'cos it's a good solid car.
