infectiousuub Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Throwing this out there to get some feed back. I ran across a 1981 bratt sub with a 1800 under the hood selling for 1200. It has rust in the usual spots (door corners and wheel wells) but the rust was in small amounts. The bed of the sub loooked great some rust on the gate. The ignition was out and rewired to a switch, boot cracked on the right anxle (big surprise), 211,000 miles, the dash was cracked badly, rebuilt caberator, dual exhaust both with cats, no major oil leaks, and it ran well for the 10 minutes of driving I took it for. Was wondering if this is a good price for the vehicle? Seemed a bit much, thinking more around 800 for this sub. What do ya think? :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[HTi]Johnson Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Yeah I was thinking like $600 to $800 for that. But it's all about how much anyone is willing to pay for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 I hear Brats sell for a lot more then wagons over in the US (well, it's the same here in Aus.) So it probably is worth it. Talk the seller down and see if you can get it for cheaper, but don't spend more then you want to. Well that was a lot of obvious info, I feel superior now Good luck with it. If you get it, I hope you'll be happy with it. They sure are neat little trucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffast Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 it's all about what the car is worth to you how ever i think thats a little high for a brat go down to less than 1k and that's a great deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboobaroo Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 If you need help getting parts and such, let me know. My Brat currenty has shaved everything on it, mirrors, doorhandles, locks, all side marker lights, trim and drip rails and I'm about to start chopping the top up to put in a EA81 sunroof.
