Post by davemh »

Hey guys,

My family has a 1966 Bellett as follows

White, Red Seats
58,000 Miles
4 Spd Manual, Synchro GearBox
One Owner / always Garaged
In good - very good condition
Original as per factory


Any idea of what its worth ? Factor in would be sold with full 12 months Rego ?
Is there any interest in this model ? Thoughts or info ?

Appreciate it, thank you

Sounds nice Dave, do you have any pics? Also, location?

Mr. 'BELLQLD' was the last person on here with a Bellett of this vintage for sale...I think it is listed below, might be a guide. The sedan in SA for ~$1k (later at auction for $3.2k :shock:) was a bit of a roughy.

Cheers,
Duane

wow, car is similar to that, i don't know a lot about them, i do have some pics but they are not detailed, getting some decent pics soon I hope, my aunts that own it is incapacitated and cannot drive it anymore.

And I figured 2K would be at the very upper end of the scale, some great help, do appreciate it - car would be in Sydney

Hi, I paid $800 for this 67, it needed a bit of work under the bonnet, but was good for the price.
Dont forget to put it up on the forum when you go to sell it

Hmmmm,

As somone who has lots of Bellett memories, but is not a current owner, I've been thinking about the possibility of getting a car like this. A "genuine" car - not immaculate but with patina and able to be used as a daily driver. And the kind of money being talked about is in the ballpark. But I would have to dispose of something to accomodate it, and that could take a few weeks. How likely is it that you will sell, and how soon might it happen?

Cheers, Vic

Thanks for the reply guys

The car is currently in Bathurst stored in the garage.

It is looking likely we will sell it, it will be brought to Sydney if that is the case.

I am hoping to get much better photos in a week or so, we are in no rush. We have had an offer and a serious expression of interest from this forum.

If you want to know anything else, will do my best to help.
