Hi All,
I'm in the market for a cab chassis patrol, ideally I am after a 4.2 ST cab coil with an ex telstra body. Now it would appear that this combo is pretty rare, Telstra may not in fact have ever used the ST.
Spent today looking at a few cars at dealers and saw two very nice ones, a 2008 ex Telstra DX (with an ex telstra body in imaculate condition) 123000kms very very clean for about $28,000. I was very tempted but I currently own an ST wagon and the lady of the house isnt keen on the DX.
Also saw a 2006 4.2 with 78,000 kms, tray back and was about $40,000, seems alittle steep really but these things seem to keep their value, are the 4.2 really that much better than the 3L CRD?
Anyway does anyone know if someone sells these pods second hand, I priced one new and they are very pricey. I've done a bit of a search and havent been able to find what I am after second hand.
Any help aprreciate. Really looking forward to getting the fit out of one of these pods started, It's the type of project I love to do and have so many great ideas from the builds I've seen here.
Cheers
