Shite Ron Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I went to see this with a friend yesterday evening. The seller seemed a decent genuine person who had bought it off a man who was giving up driving at 100 years old in 1991. The MOT failure also helped his decision. He apparently had it off his niece who owned it from new. Apparently only 250 were sold in blue mink and it will make a nice car when done. The R/H rear quarter and rear panel are full of filler where it had a poor repair, it also had a terrible repaint so must have been looking sorry for itself 30 years ago when last driven. The back end is in a bad way from exposure to the elements but the front was surprisingly good under the bonnet. It is too much money for me but would be a rewarding project for someone with more spare time. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334117961860?hash=item4dcafb8084:g:BG0AAOSwPTRhHRxO Remspoor, anonymous user and eddyramrod 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soundwave Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Escort van, which has possibly been retrieved from the Mariana Trench. Spares or repairs. Ain't nobody repairing this, it's fucking mullered. I especially enjoy the extreme footwell ventilation. Also doubles as Flintstone power if the engine breaks down. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3049773501924475 morrisoxide, Shite Ron, grizgut and 4 others 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarvinsMom Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 its cos 1970s cars are such a weird and wonderful mess at times, like that Chrysler, which is a mishmash of all sorts of styling queues, is why i LOVE them lots and lots and lots. eddyramrod and TheOtherStu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
