Hi All
For sale MK2 1973 Hard Top Haflinger. I am sadly having to sell off my Haflinger collection as I am moving and have neither the time, room or money to keep them.
This vehicle is in ORIGINAL condition with no dodgy repairs. I am sure this has never been a farm vehicle not been used in since the 80s. I think this has seen almost exclusively road Kms as the bash plate is not marked and if you divide the hours and the kms it has a high average speed. The last owner said this was used around Sydney as a city car many years ago before he got it.
It has been used as a camper and had a rudimentary bed in the back when I bought it. I took this out and beneath this the tray (bed) is in pretty much as new condition! It is dirty but there is hardly a ding in it and the colour is I am sure as it would have been when it was new. The hard top has stopped this vehicle suffering the same fate as so many other Halfingers you see now.
In general the look of it is a bit rough as I think it has been in the sun a bit but it is in solid condition but there is a small amount of welding needed in the drivers and passenger foot wells and on the windscreen surround but the body is very straight and solid. I have not tarted it up at all for this ad and I have not done anything in the years I have had it. It was running when I got it and will now with a new battery.
I have not seen another hard top like it other than on Constantin’s site and I think it is probably quite rare. I will probably get corrected here but I think it is highly likely that this hard top was offered by the Australian importer as an option when new. It has doors that are exactly the same as other rigid doors I have seen on Aussie Haflingers and the construction matches the body perfectly. This vehicle is complete. The pre-heater pipes are there, the original exhaust, the governor & even the little button that blocks up the hole where the PTO handle would go. The Aluminium roll cage is pretty cool too! It comes on a trailer (unregistered) which is a bit tatty but covered a 1000km trip without a hiccup.
I paid AUD$6500 for it three years ago and I would like to get my money back.
I always thought this truck would look great sign written.
Give me a PM if you are interested. I thought I would put it up here before I advertise elsewhere. Located in BRISBANE, QLD, AUSTRALIA.
