I bought this without the wife's permission and now she's most upset...and that's putting it mildly. So, to help lower tensions its up for sale! 

 

Pussy!

This doesn't look dear , on the Blue Forum.

Seems some over there are are Holier than thou and come over all PH/ Mumsnet about it been on a tax free book. It's an old Cortina with a Rover V8 shoved in it, as far as I'm concerned saving £250 odd a year is a good thing and I don't think Bonhams will value it any less for not having a deep clock dash.

Call me ol' Mr Perceptive, but when the dubiously spaced "private plate" is easier to understand than the sellers spelling, I suspect you're not dealing with the sort of middle-class professional who will have cherished the car ;)

Fingers crossed for you!

 

The interiors lovely still, and from what you can see in the pics it was white originally. Hopefully the black paint will power wash off, or at least strip back fairly easily. Assuming of course the matt black bothers you?! Personally I'd try to get it off.

Thank you!  I'm not too worried about the scrappy black, with a bit of luck it will put off a few buyers.  Once it's mine, of course, there are several options open to me.  Live with it, because the car will be parked on-street; try to wash it off, but after my experience with the MR2 alloys I don't think that will happen; or get it in for a cheap blowover given that the prep has been done recently!  Anyone else seeing this in their head...?

 It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.

"Joliet" Jake Blues: What's this?

Elwood Blues: What?

"Joliet" Jake Blues: This car. This stupid car. Where's the Cadillac? [He tries the cigarette lighter, finds it doesn't work, and throws it out the window.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues: The Caddy, where's the Caddy?

Elwood Blues: The what?

"Joliet" Jake Blues: The Cadillac we used to have. The Bluesmobile.

Elwood Blues: I traded it.

"Joliet" Jake Blues: You traded the Bluesmobile for this?

Elwood Blues: No, for a microphone.

"Joliet" Jake Blues: A microphone? Okay, I can see that. But what the hell is this?

Elwood Blues: This was a bargain. I picked it up at the Mount Prospect City police auction last spring. It's an old Mount Prospect police car. They were practically giving them away.

"Joliet" Jake Blues: Well, thank you, pal. The day I get out of prison, my own brother picks me up in a police car. [Fog horn and warning bell sounds.]

Elwood Blues: You don't like it?

"Joliet" Jake Blues: No, I don't like it. [Elwood jumps the car over an opening drawbridge.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues: Car's got a lot of pickup.

Elwood Blues: It's got a cop motor, a four hundred and forty cubic inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters, so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say? Is it the new Bluesmobile or what? [Jake lights a cigarette using his own lighter.]

"Joliet" Jake Blues: Fix the cigarette lighter.
