[ROVERNET - UK]P5B auction

[Gianni D'Ortenzio]

I am going to an auction in Central Victoria (Aust)tomorrow with a rough P5B 
coming up. May be restorable (needs everything) but probably a parts car. 
Anyone in Vic/NSW who might be interested and wants details or me to bid? 
Contact me on my email.
Gianni
