Thanks that was a really great insight into a true enthusiastic build. I must agree with some of the comments. (stickers may have been a misjudged addition :p) But all in all the end result is outstanding. The details behind the engine build is really intense and i must say it looks brand new from what i can see. it is indeed a pity that you had to sell her after the amount of work you put in. Forgive me for asking but i can't seem to locate any figures behind the build cost. I searched on the thread you added along with a general search on an A72 build. Please advice on a rough cost for both Phases if possible so i can prepare myself for the expense. I would love to have it in its original condition. Nothing too fancy!! Only things that i would like to have different would be an AC unit. Side Mirrors as per the original on either side of the bonnet. (if i can find the parts) Interior as per factory default. A very basic stereo system (reverse cams or any new fangled additions are not of interest to me) Thanks once again for the quick and prompt response. Regards, Nehan.

I have an undying urge to purchase a Lancer A72 wagon. I learnt how to drive in this car and now feel the need to own one of my own. i have had a look at the prices and i've noticed you find them in the ranges of 200,000/- upwards based on condition mainly. I prefer to buy one in the lower ranges as i would like to attend to everything from scratch as opposed to picking up where another left off. Please advice in general how much this would cost if i broke it down into 2 phases. additionally please advice if you think the phases need amendment. Phase 01 - Full body and interior of the car. Phase 02 - Full Engine Restoration. Thanks in advance. i would also like to use this car as a daily driver for the pure driving pleasure it has never failed to provide me. Is the above a possibility considering the car will be half a century in a few years. Best Regards, Nehan
