This lwb drover has come up for sale near me. After having a look it looks good rust wise in the sills and floor. The passenger door needs replacing. Is 1.3 with 5 speed and rego. Tyres are cracking all over, springs are flat, no spare, wrong seats so the seat belts are useless and you can't lift the handbrake up. What would the experienced suzi drivers pay for something like this?

Where are you and the vehicle?
Location greatly affects price.

I think the real question is how urgently do you want it, and how much would you pay?

I think that's the real answer. It's all about how much you want it

We are in Busselton W.A. I have a price in mind just wondering what you guys would pay for it.

I understand what you're trying to find out, but once cars get that old/niche, they are far more about what you are willing pay. I paid $800 for both of my last 1.0 tray backs. One was a a fair basket case (quite rusty, drum front end etc) and the other is a clean type 3 but has no engine/gearbox/transfer.

I would think a running reg'd 1.3 Japanese built trayback (which are rare) would be worth at least $2.5K (and that's about what I'd pay if one came my way) but I don't know what the market is like in WA.
