I have put this here instead of the For Sale section because I'm happy to discuss the car and what has gone into it and anything anyone wants to know.
I will leave it to the moderators whether they are happy about this or whether they move it over there.
This is my car that I restored back in 2010.
It has a 403 block which was fitted with a new sleeve and piston set. The bearings were replaced and it had extensive work done on the head.
It has probably done 30K since then and still goes great.
The trouble is I used acrylic paint with the bare metal respray. That paint has failed.
I've advertised this for sale a number of times for various prices but I've come down to an all time low of $5000.
It's very sad for me but I have too many other projects to give it the love it needs.
But for anyone who wants a 203 it's a pretty good place to start from because it can be driven while it is being restored again and everything works.
It has a custom oil filter housing made by a guy in the Victorian club so it takes 505 spin on oil filters.
It also has a 12 volt alternator that never misses a beat.
It is fitted with a Smiths heater which was from an original 203 installation. I modified the water hose outlet so it actually heats up. It blows hot air to the windscreen to stop fogging and down below the dash. I modified the tail lights so they work as indicators as well as stop and tail lights. For interest it has the original semaphore indicators that work well with covers that I made for them from perspex.
I have spares to keep it running and I also have separately a set of extractors, a twin carb manifold and a supercharger. These are not included in the sale price . The supercharger is priced at $2000 and the twin carb manifold which came from France and has never been fitted is $400. The extractors which have never been used are $500. They were copied from a set by Ivan Washington.
