My new 1602 (with a 2L motor) needs a home. I just put down a deposit on a 72' 1602 (RHD) and I pick it up on Monday. See pic attached, for now I just need to get it road worthy, but I have big plans for it - sway bars are number one, Weber's (maybe FI it), lower it, Alpina fender flairs, 15"x7" Alpina style rims. I'll post more pics when I pick it up. Beaner7102 (& 72 1602 now) :redspot

Way to go Shaun - I was about to email you about the 1602 since I hadn't heard from you about it for a week or so.

Looks like a great vehicle to start with and build into something special - well done.

P.S. What does the future hold for the faithful Agave ride?

Yeah, it sat in a car yard for 4 weeks, so they were willing to drop the price a bit. Now to drive it and see what needs fixing. Beaner7102

The Agave is still the favorite, I will swap a few bits between the two cars, brake boosters for one (new on the 1602) and most of the chrome trim. It also means I can strip and rust proof the Agave, so it will last another 34 years, and use the 1602 and the daily driver. Beaner7102

It would be good to see you there and finally meet. I think Todd from Geelong is making the trip up to attend too which is good. Its at Trinity...next door to Marcellin in Bulleen. You can find the info sheet here:
