Hi all,

Wondering if anyone knows of any landcrab utes for sale or the best place to find one in Australia? I’m interested in finding one in any condition. I often check eBay and gumtree but no luck yet.

I’m in the process of restoring a Wolseley 6 and well and truly have the landcrab bug. The utility version would be ideal for me.

I am based in Scotland but would take care of all export duties if someone knew of a hidden gem down under!

Thanks

Hi Stuart6

There is a Ute for sale in NSW -details on the LOCI website under Crabmart here.

You may be shocked at the cost of the current cost of a shipping container which is now several times higher than prior to Covid.

I know of two utes in Canterbury, NZ, but they both contain more rust than steel. One was pensioned off the road when the front and back halves separated...while being driven. I doubt they would be worth the shipping, but let me know if you are interested.
