New member joining. I am amazed to find this site. I've googled haflingers a lot, and only just found it. Fabulous!! Hello!
I used to have a 71 haf somewhere around the mid 80s. I still have the ad from "The Age", advertised for $1950, had a canvas cover and a set of big mud tyres and may have had a RWC.
As the photo shows it was beige, had a full roll cage. The owner, Frankston I think, had used it for shooting around Mansfield.
I had it for about 5 years and sold it for around $4500. I built a body for it out of caravan cladding, made doors etc, and at one stage I commuted to work in it every day for about 6 months. I did get some 13" Alfa rims fro it, but remember it getting wobbly at speed -tyre flex!
Didn't really do any off-roading apart from a day with LROC in Dandenong. Quite fun driving around the LR & RRs in the mud.

I've been lurking on ebay/car sales for a few years looking to buy another haflinger, so we will see what happens one day!
Would love a LWB, a 5 speed before a 4 speed, but perhaps any car is better than none!
I still have my workshop manuals etc from the old car, must've known I'd want another car one day.
thanks & I am sure I will enjoy the journey
Nigel
