Estimate looks rather reasonable - in fact if it stays towards the lower end I might end up doing something silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a very nice, local example that had been in storage for a few years. Unfortunately shortly after he got it back on the road the cambelt snapped, so it needed new piston rings. However he assures me that this has all been done now Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may* have mentioned this before. *Every time one comes up I think. This would be the best colour too if it wasn't shagged. That blue with the orange velour is perfect though the velour in this looks very faded. I don't need a project (I have far too many jobs to do already) and can't afford a good one so it shall remain a dream car. Shite Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By F reg it would have a one piece badge, not individual letters. Then it has later seats from a 1500 or Dolomite which is actually no bad thing, they are higher backed and more supportive. I have a set in my 1300. But the weirdest thing is the 1500 steering wheel. The 1300 has a horn bar in the steering wheel, this one doesn't, so they will have to have fitted a horn elsewhere which hardly seems worth the effort when the 1300 wheel looks so much nicer as well.
