eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
Just noticed this one..
(No association with the seller)
Pretty rough. Not sure it's anything other than a parts vehicle.
But.. If you are brave and talented..
Not sure what the motor is in the pics.. Doesn't appear to be Steyr-Puch.

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
Interesting thing about this one are the green seats and the fact that it has the same rubber foam pad I have on mine (over the horse hair) which I assumed someone added but looks like it is original.
I may edit my front seat drawing now that I know this.

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
I saw the bright green vinyl seats and thought the same thing..
The motor has me baffled. I have asked for more info on that.. and more photos of the engine bay.
I'm questioning if the motor has ever lived inside the engine bay, or the unit was sold with the engine on the bed, with the caveat of "it MIGHT fit."
There appears to be quite a bit of perforation in the body "buckets," and (like mine) its missing the lower engine valance and the rear engine access door.

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
I like what the sellor added to his ebay auction post:
If someone wants to offer me $20k for mine let me know and I will pay for shipping!On Nov-04-13 at 16:11:15 PST, seller added the following information:
One Bidder Mentioned that Motor in Picture is not Original.
NO Original Motor Included
Previous Owner installed a Kohler Engine, see Pictures.
Still a Rarity in great Condition, Hard to Find.
Not Restored in Running Condition are anywhere From $ 12000.- to $ 20000.-
When you can find one.

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
Q: What's that scraping sound?
A: That's the sound of my super sweet 1975 Kohler V4 motor dragging on the ground.
PS- Could you get out and tell me what the oil pressure reads? Don't wanna blow this baby up.. its worth $20K.

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
Sorry it is now sold
Found on the interweb
And nice call re the color - the mystery continues!
My build sheet has the color code but it must be some sort of SDP internal code!?!

A prime candidate for a plywood body! So new petrol in the carb, good battery and I bet it will climb out of that hole!

Re: eBay Haflinger Pathfinder
You think the seller set the reserve at $1k?
(I think the seller should set the reserve at $1k, but again, I haven't got a nickle in it..)
