Cool XW V8 for sale

I had a look at an XW sedan today in a car yard
the body seemed straight but it had problems
there were caravan towing mirrors bolted to the doors
and it looked like it had been painted with a brush
and someone had used carpet for door trims
I guess every thing there could be fixed
it had later model bucket seats and column shift
I spoke to the salesman and was told $8k as is with no reg
possibly a base for a mock up GT as it already had a V8
this was at a car yard in Wacol just off the Ipswich motor way
its in a yard that sells twincab utes he has about a hundred of them
if interested have a look
it is at the Wacol turnoff and in the service road
John

Still seems cheap was it an original V8 and how much rust was in it? I might be heading that way this week might pop in and have a look. Although if it's still there it's probably be no good.
