83 gtv for sale

[Mickael Cox]

Alright, time to retire the much loved gtv. Have decided to drive something much more sensible and much less fun for twelve months before considering the next alfa.
Naturally there are plenty of issues with the old girl, but she has been my daily driver for the past four years and apart from one time when a wire fell off the starter motor, she's never left me stranded on the side of the road. (But there's always tomorrow, I suppose)
The usual issues are present - there's plenty of rust showing up at bottom of doors and front quarters, as well as behind rear bumper, probably a few other spots too, haven't looked too closely.
2nd gear grinds, although can be avoided with sympathetic gear changing. She'll pop out of 1st too if it isn't in properly.
Needs new pads and rotors all round, as well as tyres pretty soon. The engine also has a healthy thirst for oil, although it's still willing.
Lights front and rear are dim, which I hope would be solved by changing to new relays.
Paint condition is poor and right rear wheel arch is damaged where someone backed into it.
Overall she's in pretty average condition, but she's still fun to drive and steers beautifully. (And did manage to get me pulled over yesterday doing 122) For the past three years all she's done is go up and down the peninsula freeway to and from work.
Rego runs out on May 9.
Couldn't be bothered putting it on ebay, if no one here wants it for parts or suchlike, then I'll tuck her away in the shed. Would rather see an alfisti get it, even if it's going to be cut up for parts. Asking price is $500
Easiest way to catch me is through email - druid1@iprimus.com.au
Cheers,
Mike

Helluva deal for 500 bucks. They all pop out of 1st and crunch 2nd, anyway 

[Mickael Cox]

well, I'm not trying to pass it off as something it's not - she's not the best, but she still tries
Forgot to say the car is located at Cape Schanck or at Mornignton during business hours

Thanks Mickeal, looking forward to putting her in the shed next to the others :-).
