We have a 1985 mitsubishi magna . Manilla colour sedan se with tan trim. Has been in family since new. Very good condition ,body work no dents. Has had a reconditioned motor and auto was overhauled. Headlining has been replaced. Carburettor model, must be a collectors item??. Small problems. Has been sucking air in fuel line. May need new clamps. air con idle up not working. Has been off road some years and garaged. Could easily be put back on road .Back seats very little use and has had seat covers since new.Do not want to see it go to wreckers as it is not a bomb. Criminal to crush for scrap. Need to find a good home with a magna enthusiast. Is anybody out there interested. Location is Gosford area. Please get in touch if interested. Will wait a short time for replies. Wife wants it gone.(Drives well and has an excellent ride )

It is over 25 years old put it on Club Permit and use it very cheap and you get to enjoy it when ever you want.

It obviously has sentimental value to you, but seeing it has been off the road for years, it is obviously surplus to your requirements.
Have you changed the coolant and oil before you stored it? Tyres off the ground? If not, there will be a lot of problems caused by years of non use.
Keep it in storage for another 20 years, and it WILL be a collector's item!

Thanks Mad Max. I dont think we will be keeping it for that length of time. I dont feel there would be that many problems putting it back on the road. Suit restorer else crusher.
