aled Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 A friend and I went to see a 1600 Ghia Barn Find today.....shame it wasn't a Twin-Cam or RS 1600 (Will carry on looking though). The guy wanted £400-£450 for it. It is 2 owners from new. Beneath the straw and grime, there was not a bit of rot. Needs a bit of TLC though. Eventually got it started and she purred ! Does anyone know the shade of red please and whether it is about the right price?
Shaun1706 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 CheeRS Al, Your a gud un. Just waiting on the farmer to confirm its mine. Everything works and no speaker holes. Original radio works too, bonus Shaun
Twinkle Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 looks good difficult to say which red it is until she is cleaned up a bit though
bronze4door Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 it is worth that all day as long as it needs no major welding good find though still waiting to find mine
antz Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 worth that amount all day long!!! gwan the 4 doors
sab6024 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Great Find!!! Wish I could find summat like that.
Mick The Cabbie Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Price sounds OK to me. I'd buy it for that money especially if its rot free. The colour looks like Jupiter red metallic used by ford up to 78-79ish.

escortmad79 Posted December 10, 2007 Report Posted December 10, 2007 Looks like jupiter red to me I'd go along with that
stephens_xpack Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 Another OSF saved from eventual death - gotta be good..
Delotus Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 Is right ,i like a nice ghia meself. Defo looks like jupiter red as advised above. Had a two door one myself in that color,gourgess it looked too. Tell him you will bring it back to him when you have done all the jobs it needs.And you will take him round the block in it,that should persuede him a little more to part with it. Best of luck. Tim
