This 1.7 Lada Niva is virtually brand new. The vehicle was driven for 2 years and then professionally stored. The vehicle is in mint show room condition and 100% original.
Bernard Funke is arriving back in South Africa to have the vehicle professionally reverse stored. A professional will meticulously go through the vehicle over a 2 day period from 26th to 27th March 2013. This is a list of the work which will be done excluding the reverse storage process, namely: Brand New Tyres (Nankang 4x4 AT) x No 5 off even though the spare in the bonnet remains original / Original steel rims shot blasted and powder coated to match original x 4 off / I have purchased the original Russian high quality rubber foot well mats and boot mat / Brand new shock absorbers – imported from Russia.
The following work will be done during servicing – new battery, new fan belt, spark plugs, points, condenser, air filter, oil filter, engine oil, fuel filter, gearbox oil, F&R differential oils, radiator flushed – cleaned and refilled, petrol tank flushed – cleaned and refilled, joints greased, complete brake bleed and re-charge, new brake pads, wheel re-alignment, and then the usual stuff like timing chain, hand brake, light globes, brake lines, etc.
Photographs of the vehicle will be posted on 29 March 2013. In the interim - anyone who might be interested can contact his mother (Elaine) in Oudtshoorn on 039 6823889.
Asking price: R60 000 Mileage: less than 27 000kms

This Niva would not have points/condenser if a 1.7 , Marius. You are getting careless in your old age. . .

Bernhard,
The reverse restore process should be finished by now. Will you share details with us, please. It will provide excellent guidance to the couple of new NIVA owners on the forum in who are in the process of fixing their NIVAs. I am sure many of the older owners can also pick up some tips?
Regards
Spikes

Hi Spikes
Bernard mentioned that he will post some pics on the 29th - hopefully he will be able to give us more details on the restorations as well.

I am really tempted, but I just don't have the cash to spare at the moment.

I think the price is now more realistic and the car should sell within the 5 month period.

Nice. Is the new owner joining the forum, or are they already a member?
