FOR SALE: Make an Offer

[nutshell]

I am offering a pair of 91 SVX! That's two of them.
NUTSHL is a rare burgundy 4WS full leather touring with sunroof and FSH. She has a dead transmission and I just don't have the funds to fix her. She was - we understand - the second SVX imported into NZ. I also have a two-tone black on silver 91 that I was given as a parter. NUTSHL has 330k on the clock, the other has 175k. Both must go. Because of their age they qualify for duty free importation into Australia. I am prepared to ship - at your cost.

i can send you a good gear box which as far as me and my dad (30 yr + mech) know needs solenoids and maybe a new filter and brake band adjust if you want to fix it ?

Come on fellow NZ SVX owners lets get together & give Ian (NUTSHL) a hand to get the 4WS back on the road - only requires a gearbox swap with the other car, how hard can that be? pity that OT or YT are not here....

[**Ewie**]

Where have you been for the transmission Ian? What kind of cost are you looking at??

[BRADY]

I have had the pleasure of meeting Ian and his amazing SVX in 2010. I urge anyone to help Ian keep this car - it is his baby.

This is a rare 4WS SVX - I assume it is totally JDM. There must be a transmission somewhere in NZ!? Hang in there Ian!

Thanks for all the support and best wishes.
I am sure this is fixable - only it won't be by me. I'm in a financial crunch and running on empty. So something has to give; unfortunately it's that question of priorities. And to add insult to injury, just when I thought it couldn't get any worse...some unknown person recently nudged the passenger side and now we have a ding as well as a stuffed transmission. :-(
Both vehicles are totally JDM. In fact only last year we installed a genuine factory heater assembly under the dash in NUTSHL after the original failed. I'd hate to see them wind up in some anonymous knackers yard. Or worse. Anyone? The clock is ticking.

PM sent Ian.....

Anyone heard from NUTSHL? I'm keen to have a look at the cars...

He is on the road quite often these days (not in the SVXs) - give him a few days to return your call.

[**Ewie**]

No worries.. thought he might not be getting the notifications like I was(nt) until recently

Guys,
Sorry to gatecrash into the Southern Hemisphere region - but I wonder if I could ask any of you if you can help me.
First I have friends down under who can assist with shipping.
I need the window switches from the driver door (4 x cluster) in sound working condition and the dash mounted A/C control and heater module - not the heater unit but the dash mounted unit.
I can provide pics.
Breakers here are very rare and the 2 I know about here in the UK do not have these parts avaiable.
Hope someone in RHD land can help....
Here is my SVX just to whet your minds to help me !

Thanks.

What is the other Subaru in the picture ? looks unusual from the rear.

[**Ewie**]

Looks like a Brumby ute to me with a big canopy....

[scoobydo]

This is what it is guys !

It is of course a Brumby !
Known here in the UK as an MV1800 (dull name eh?)
Mine is full restored (as the rust gremlin has killed most that were imported here
Mine was solid as a rock but was fully stripped out - I bought it and rebuilt it and added A/C (from Oz my mate in Toowomba found it for me) PAS from a mate in Perth. Weber Carby 32/26 from re-carb in Oz. Rear discs from a mate in the USA west coast. Plus loads of other stuff from here.
Its a great little truck I use to haul my Beta Trials Bike around in.
