The "Rescue Me!" Thread...

Postby Serpent155 » Thu Feb 17, 2011 10:27 am

Dunno if there is already one, but here goes!

This thread is dedicated to ALL 'classic' cars that you've come across just lying under a tarp or cherry tree awaiting someone to rescue it and put it back into its original glory :)

I use the term classic in quotation marks because there are cars out there that aren't deemed classics by the "experts" but still are in the eyes of the beholder. If possible, please state the location of the car you post, and a contact number of the seller if you have it, if not, it's hunting time!

I'll start things off :)

Found in Bentong, Pahang... Merc "Batman" & a Daihatsu 4x4
Image
Image

Found at a Shell Station in Klang... Fiat 124 Coupe
Image
Image

Found in Pengkalan Hulu... a Holden Special
Image
Image

Found in Glenmarie... a VW Fastback & a BMW 728i
Image
Image
Image

Found in the back of a Ron Lim's office in Sunway....
Image
Image

Start sharing! :)

Yeah, disappeared after leaving the car there, it's a 944 Turbo actually, what a shame! The 124 Coupe....that's a sad story, the owner's relative runs the Shell station and refuses to sell, says he's going to fix her up....the car has been lying there in the open for 11 years....

As for the Daihatsu 4x4, that's quite rare, not sure if it's for sale, but it's located at this shop just outside Bentong town, along with the Merc Batman and Hillman Minx that I posted in a different thread:

I counted at least seven of these Merc 'Batman' cars in Betong, Thailand...for a small town, there are so many old Merc's there it's unbelievable!

Some are for sale, and if you have 'jalan' to bring in, there are some that can be had for as little as 2-5k...all need work, but none are beyond help :thumbs:

Nice threads....when I was doing up my 168/156/coupe always hangs out at albert...sometimes no problem also hang out there...it was an interesting thing to do...maybe one day will do a true restoration (classic I mean) if time and space is available.

Hi Chris,

Excellent thread. There are some gems around.

The Mercedes so affectionately called 'Batman' is actually known as the Fintail. It's the successor to the Ponton.

Believe the VW to be a Type 3 powered by a 1600cc engine. Exceptionally rare car. Well worth restoring.

This is actually a Rover P5. The Rover 3500 moniker is slightly misleading as the P5, P6 and SD1 all have 3.5l V8 variants.

Wow, an Adenauer, and a RHD one at that. Highly collectable car. The W198 300SL 'Gullwing' used this car's drive-train.

Not disputing it as the P5s only came with the V8. Merely stating that the 3500 can also be used to refer to the P6 and SD1 which came later.

However, I would say it's a 4-door coupe, the P5B, and not a 2-door. This pre-dates the Mercedes CLS, and can lay claim to be the world's first 4-door coupe, unlike the CLS.

The Opel GT looks to be in RHD. Highly unusual as this is the 2nd one I've seen in Malaysia and they've both been in RHD. Factory literature and all other publications state that they were only available in LHD. The other one's in KK.

the high line P5's had the half over head/half side valve straight six. only the lowlines offered the V8 and the SD1 came with overhead valve 6, P6 came with the TC version of the landrover 2.2 4 pot

No mate...What I should have said was that all P5Bs came with the V8. The B stands for Buick, from whom Rover bought the engine. Assuming highline and lowline refers to the roofline, both types of roofline were available with the straight-6 and V8. To be pedantic, the P5s were all badged 3-Litre and P5Bs all badged 3.5-Litre.

Yes, the P6 had a 2.2l inline-4, in single-carb (SC) and twin-carb (TC) form. Prior to that, it was a 2l inline-4, again in SC and TC form. But alongside both the fours was the V8, which was the same engine as used in the P5B. This is the car that was originally badged 3500 (3-speed auto) and 3500S (4-speed manual).

Again yes, the SD1 had an inline-6 variant in 2 capacities, but again there was a V8. This was available almost as soon as the model was launched and was also badged 3500. Rover never marketed it as an SD1.

GOOD NEWS! This Opel Manta has been rescued! Always loved the Manta, since I was a kid, begged my dad to buy one, but he bought a Ford Cortina 2.0 instead. Anyway, since this photo was taken, the car has been bought and is now at a secret location undergoing a ground-up restoration :)

(BTW, sidenote, has anyone noticed that there are FOUR Sunbeam Alpines for sale on Mudah??? Once so hard to find, now there are 4!)

"Rescued" news from across the ocean! My friend in the UK, Simon, found this Austin Healey, I think it was a 'barn find'. He's currently restoring this classic beauty to mint condition...here's the car after it was stripped, welded and primered :)

Spotted this Opel Manta while on a bike ride up north. Location, near Jeli.I could not get any closer cos the ground was really muddy (that truck in the foreground is actually stuck!)

From what I could see, this car can still be salvaged. It's sitting next to a junk pile outside a car workshop. If you look closely, the car still has the 'Manta-ray' emblem on its side next to the wheel arch! I hope someone rescues & restores this car, or it'd be a very sad end to an icon.

Managed to get a contact, Abang Joe 013-9251169. Spread the word!

It is a GT, it has vinyl roof and those are its signature rims, and the badge at the boot is a bit longer.
It shld have twin SU's, also note all GT's were made using leftover Cooper S engines so it shld have the 'extra' studs head.

That Lancia looks sweet! The 635CSi as well, altho I have to say, they already look 'rescued'! Haha :)

Let's stick to cars we find that need work, cars that need to be rescued! The Lancia and 635csi belong more in the Random Classics or Find of the Day threads.

How about this, a rare Alfasud Ti. Currently in Ramly's place, and yes, it's for sale. He started some work on it, but now doesn't have the time, so he's selling it :)

Nah...........not at the moment. My cash will be spent on the 155 and possibly the Bravo too. I have gotten over the Racing wet dreams too............for the moment at least.
:mrgreen:

I must admit that old man Ramly has got pretty pretty good collection of classics but it's just that his asking price are always too ridiculous that I do not even bother to view the cars he put on sale........sadly.

Sadly, I checked, no papers, so if anyone needs, this Merc S320 is for parts only....even the vacuum doors still work!

This is a great thread! Well-done Chris! :thumbs:

Somehow, after visiting this and the other classic car threads in IA...I am beginning to grow a fondness on classic and old rides! Hmm..... :P

Patience NT, a few more years & yer 156 will qualify as an "old" ride as well . . . :mrgreen:

But yes, well done Serpent155 fer this thread. Had a close look at yer Fiat & fetta @ Goodwork the other day. Nice . . .
