If I had a garage .......

I would love to be bidding on this and waiting at the docks when she arrived home :D

How old do cars have to be before you qualify for classic insurance, 25 or 30 years ?

Oh, I guess I would probably need a house first too :oops:

Any Vet fans here ?

How sweet is that? Is that 55k mls? $10,000 cheap as chips! Have a bit of a weakness for American muscle cars. AFAIK the required vehicle age, to be exempt from VRT, and qualify for classic motor tax is 30 yrs. Not sure if the age requirement is the same for the insurance. Might depend on the insurance company.

Sh1t - looks like I need to wait another 5 years then for a 1980 Vet. Oh, I keep forgetting, I need the house and garage too.

Can't resist checking them out on eBay though. Another fantastic looking machine is the Dodge Charger - some nice examples on there too.

Not sure why only 85 - maybe there weren't too many cars able to clock over 90 or so in the early 80s ?

This car is probably a little dangerous at speeds higher than 90 - especially if you come across a corner :lol:
