I'm not sure who owns it but my mate knows the man, sat outside for a year or two with no windscreens ect.
I know of a couple of cars around timaru I've been meaning to shoot out for a drive to post up too.

No photos but been chasing a few leads around the place. Was driving past a garage and thought Id stop in and ask about a silver 160j I seen there 10 years ago. Mechanic knew exactly what I was talking about and said the lady died and car was given to a younger family member who, in his words "destroyed it" such a shame as was a minter.
I do see alot of 1200 utes around wellington.

This was for sale on the side of the road. Looks good from the distance, but spotted a crappy paint job with pitting and a couple surface rust spots coming through. Asking price is $3500
I have more pics including the number if somebody is interested lol.
