xen Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 In the eighties it was relatively common to see old American cars (and many early Mercs etc , and even the Aussie Holdens ) being driven around Bangkok . I guess they all eventually die and go to that great scrapyard in the sky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transam Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Bit off topic but my mate back in the 70's UK bought, I think the year was a 1969 SS Camaro 396 big block convertible (rare) for I think 800 quid . He got banned from driving and sold it for (I think) 1400 quid . That car now is worth a fortune.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarpSpeed Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 That car's immaculate and right hand drive though.. Not much more then it would cost stateside in that condition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Nice. Was going to say it would be much better than spending it on a Mercedes then I saw the 190SL. Want , want, want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rdrokit Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Yes the Thai American Car Club has many American muscle cars in the club. They usually have a show every year. Have not been in a couple years since I sold my 1965 Olds Cutlass but here is a link to some photos I took at one of their shows. https://plus.google.com/photos/109000363149494914708/albums/5272074377319611537?banner=pwa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schweizer Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Actually the prices are about 3.5m baht new as long as you don't go for the 5 litre versions. However they are all left hand drive. I was under the impression that a 2 litre right hand drive Mustang had been built and was soon to be supplied for the UK and other markets, there is also a 5 litre V8 for those who cannot stand the thought of anything less in a Mustang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
