Great ,pic worked OK ! She was stored just south of Nowra on a property since May 2012 .
Trish said that her husband picked it up for their friend,who was to come and collect it after a couple of weeks - but after several requests ,he could not be contacted.It was then they found he had passed away...
There is a bit of tower rust in the left side ,right looks OK, numerous rust spots where water has been trapped. Has a large area of bog on the right quarter panel.I pushed my finger on a rusty spot on the sill and it went through :?
Anyway ,more pics will tell the story!

Hi Davo,yeah the white Teardrop I got from Penrith is a lot better- way better bodywise, and mechanically.
Maybe the damaged guard and door put people off when it was on Ebay,but I was lucky enough to be only 5 minutes away and gave it a real good going over.
Door and guard now changed to straight ones from my parts stash. Hope to get it on the road next year !
Think I paid $370 for that and this went for $900 you said ? ....makes no sense...
1 more pic ...... :D

No doubt about ya Rod, your collection will be bigger than mine soon..............
Tracy reckons they have a homing beacon that attracts others. :lol: Yep. ;)

Great that you saved it, and I hope the motor is still OK. And yeah, it is a 5 bearing motor and from a '67 if the tappet cover is correct.

Cheers, Matt.
