Borgweiser Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Sup south island peeps, A couple of weeks ago I won an auction for a sad but restorable Hino Contessa for the bank breaking cost of a dollar. Only problem was it is down in Hawea Picking it up would cost me up to a grand, and up until recently that wouldn't have been that big an issue. Facing homelessness and taking out a lease on a new workshop that needs a lot of work means I'm on the double browns and beans for a bit.. Guy I brought it off has been a real GC, his wife otherwise has it lined up for the scrap man at the very first opportunity.. So offered out to any OS boe for the cost of a box of beers for the guy in Hawea. Please someone save it from scrap, this would be a rad car with f all work.

yoeddynz Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Wow. Hmmmmmmmm. Hino. Hmmm. Please someone save it. I can't right now. Just having spent $450 on petrol doesn't help plus my love should going on the multipla at work if I could afford anything. I do have storage for that wee car though. If only I could get it to Nelson cheaply. Isn't hawea at the the other end of the earth? Somewhere between hogworts and the shire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
