WTB - Alpine in Western Canada

[SDuncan]

I am looking for an Alpine in Western Canada or at least close enough to keep any transport costs at a reasonable level. I'm looking for something reasonably complete and not rusty. I'd like to finally do a V6 conversion after years of being around here.

It's a bit rough for my tastes. I would prefer not to have to do much, if any, rust repairs. Been there, done that, still have the scars to prove it.

Are you willing to drive it back to Regina in sub-zero temperatures, no heater, and a big hole where the heater should have been?

Hi Scott,

I actually have big plans for the SV. Put in a OD Tranny, and now starting to do a complete rewire. Have a buddy making me a GT dash, and if all goes well will try to enter in a new Targa planned for central BC this summer.

But I do have one to many SII's.

If one of them fits my criteria, I am listening.

James, tell me more about the BC Targa !

Hi Ron,

I think this is the link, although I thought last years event was in Merritt. I don't see any mention of a 2012 event, but a friend who competes in TSD might know more.

Hey Scott,

I'm not sure either of the SII's would meet your high standards. The 62 might be close. I'll take another look at the undercarriage. It does have certain upgrades, most notably proper rear shocks.

I am willing to travel a bit, just would rather avoid moving a vehicle across the continent. Anything in the western US states would also work.

I looks like it has a fair bit of rust already. My first Alpine had a similar appearance when I bought it and I ended up spending lots of $$$ and over 2 years repairing and replacing rusty metal. I don't want to go down that road again.

 

[SDuncan]

Still looking. I am willing to expand my area for the right car.
