Paint M - Yellow Blaze
Roof Black vinyl

I own 2 Landau's 1 of which I've had since 1983(the gold one) the other was bought about 6 years ago as a spare parts car and was driven as a daily driver for the first 3 & 1/2 years until I decided it was looking a bit tatty.
The gold 1 is an 11/74 build, tropic gold, brown vinyl roof I'm second owner.
The Brown 1 is 6/75 build, walnut glow, white vinyl but unknown number of previous owners. will post vin numbers if required.

Anyone know of a Landau in western suburbs of victoria, sitting on top of a sea container in someone's laydown yard in their business?

sbfpvcob · 20-06-2009, 08:34 PM

This is my CREWSR!!

Muzz Landau · 20-06-2009, 11:30 PM

Wow! Great looking Landau

:
Looks to be in excellent condition.
Did you buy it like this or have you had to do the usual rust repairs and rebuild?
Do you have any pics of under the bonnet?

sbfpvcob · 21-06-2009, 01:06 PM

Thanks Muzz, I haven't got any shots of under the bonnet however that is the only part that has been resprayed which I done when changing the motor. The exterior is as I got it and probably about 15 years old. I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing as there is no obvious rust, other than a slight bit in the usual rear window area. The chrome trims around the wheel arches were missing when I got it as was the chrome trim olong the door sills. I call it a 20 yard car, from 20 yards it looks pretty good, but don't get too close as it has a few scratches and bumps.
