There aren't enough Like buttons for this!   Sadly there also isn't enough money.

 

A what must have been very good American car having been molested into the usual British style circus tractor? Not sure there is anything I dislike more. Cauliflower and Cornish Pasties perhaps. Provided they kept the removed trim, it'd still be an epic task to revert it to something one can actually look at, but its originality has been destroyed forever.

I'm a bit ambivalent about this............I quite like the styling, and it is "in period"...........however, I get Mr Junkman's proposal that some thing are better left alone..but it might have hit these shores already done......

I was going to have a go at this - but now up at £150 with 6 hours to go. Do not pass go, do not collect £200 etc.

 

Also emissions problems.

 

Not worth the candle.

 

Front wipers broken, happened on Tuesday with the ice! The wipers stuck to the screen and i heard a big 'clonk' and dead.  Motor works so not that or the fuse.

Driver door huge dent, last year a neighbour across the road from me left their handbrake off and their car rolled into the door.  Still shuts and locks
Key almost broke.  Works fine and no danger of breaking if you're gentle with it, didn't see the point of getting a new one cut if this ends up at the breakers in a few weeks.
Auxiliary/ Fan belt squeal, again, no real need to replace if its going to the breakers in a few weeks!

Cheap Yankshite.  Sadly the engine is some modern multivalve rubbish rather than a good old-fashioned Iron Duke, but that should at least make it more economical I suppose.  Rear end has hints of Toyota Celica to it I reckon.

I do like these, just shit scared of them. Remember seeing one on Autotrader a good 6/7 years ago for £4k!

 

I watched the episode with this featured this week. Thought they were a good 6 months behind in Telly Time?

Please note: This car has been featured in an upcoming episode of a new TV show, and we would be keen for the new owner to potentially appear on camera purchasing the car from our presenters.

Looks like a good starting point for a picture.

 bought him in this state in the hope of doing it and driving him. I was impressed by its original condition and low mileage. As you probably all know here, these cars have 2 problems. Rusty front wings and biodegradable engine installations.

 

Looks like a full house to me with this one!
