Default I need an mkii 1960's 3.8 - wife to trade

Well she may trade me in if I buy want I want fully restored and ready. SO I have to take the long road of slow bleeding my wallet by restoration.
I think I can spend 15K to start and have been internet shopping for a few months. LH drive, 3.8, manual 4 speed, upgrades considered, white exterior and black or red interior. AC will be added if not installed and functional, probably nav & technology interface package and other well spent investment $$$$ into the car. In a few years I will try and sell it for $40K. It will have cost me $65K...but I had a bad *** MK II to tinker with and DRIVE for a few years.

Welcome to the forum John,



I'm sure we can get you a good PX but you must put details of bodywork, age and list of included options in your Ad.

Good luck in the search and enjoy the forum.

I don't have a car yet to share. I am in the hunt for a 1960-67 MK II 3.8 white and a black or maroon interior. Starting with $15K price range.

I do have a wife I am willing to trade but my lawyer said not to do that on a public forum.

Let me know what you think. Could be quite cost effective to maintain.
