This is a real 1999 Tickford TE50, number 56 out of approximately 150 made. We are after $12,500 for it. Wont be interested in selling the car in parts.

We are located in the Eastern Suburbs, about 15 min from Melbourne.

Essentially this car has mainly rear damage but also minor front damage. The front damage consists of a scratched RHS front head light, repairable cracked front bumper and a dented RHS front guard. Basically the front consists of panel damage. However, the front lower cross-member may need a little attention.

The rear damage is more structural. The rear affected areas are the rear bumper bar, boot lid, RHS rear quarter panel and rear floor pan. The rear chassis rails have moved but every panel beater has said it is still in fairly good condition and is definitely repairable.

• Tickford instrument cluster with ICE blue back light and LCD display indicating gear selected (1 , 2 , 3 , 4 )
• Premium Sound, includes better speakers, CD stacker, Amplifier and Subwoofer
• Tickford owner’s manual

The sides of the car are in perfect condition. The paint still maintains its sharp colour.

This car can still be driven. The engine is firm and smooth. It starts up with ease. Both the gear box and limited slip differential is very quite and responsive.

The semi leather and fabric interior is very clean. It is still soft and fresh. There is no odour or cigarette burns present. All the electronics work. Only problems are the missing Tickford badges from the door trims.

Overall this car is a pleasure to drive but it just needs some TLC to return it back to its former glory.

I have already bought a genuine TE50 rear bumper bar with mesh insert, genuine TE50 cat-back exhaust and a genuine TE50 boot lid with a genuine TE50 spoiler. This car is ready to be fixed up. Furthermore, I can organize ford staff discount prices for any other parts.

This is my little project that I bought off an insurance company. Hence to re-register this car, it would need to go through the VIV process.

I have been quoted $3000 for the panel beaters repair bill which includes the labour and paint cost. The rear floor pan and the rear quarter panel are the main parts needed to finish the project.

Inspection is welcome. Email me at carloversonheaven@hotmail.com or PM is fine.

Regards Patrick

ahhh!! i wish!

whao......if only i had that kinda money

how much do t series go for today? if ur qoute is accurate ur saying someone could be in this, ready to go, for about 16 thou?

mate if it isnt gone by the start of june ill take it off ur hands!

this is a great car, can be very timid when required but monstrously fast
when desired.

around $16,000 sounds right. But if you have a panel beater friend or connections to one, even better and cheaper.
