I would of been all over this but I put a deposit on the Seat yesterday and booked my flight. Oh well it is probably a right dog anyway and nowhere near as much fun collecting it.

A SEAT hearse is also far more interesting than an AMC wagon, even if it doesn't have a Gucci interior.

This is cheap.  O series with broken cambelt though so might take a bit of fixing, despite what the seller seems to think.

I like that Sherpa.  It isn't even far away.

How much is postage to Blighty, m8?

About £1000

Currently broken but potentially completely mental R3.  I'd love to buy this, fix the mechanics and return the cosmetics to original giffer spec.

Could be a good* CF substitute?

Not substitute, as such, but certainly a good stop-gap.  Only a couple of hours to go too.

 

No I can't.  I mustn't.

Rather broken looking 2CV.

 

 

never tried to start

Don't think you would have got very far anyway with the coil missing.

And I mean that in a nice way - a top hat with circular mirrors on it, a bubble perm and 8 inch stack boots - Come On Feel the Noize. An ironic bit of fun - somebody (mis) spent some time on this...look at those seats.

I'd say worth saving - and given the way the 70's have come back with some cred - just just say 'I own a Bowler. Manchester made - not that many car manufacturers from there

 More history from the Totalkitcar website :


Lancastrian David Boler ran a popular exhaust fitting centre in Oldham and was also the man behind this quirky-looking hot rod creation that he called the Boler T-Bone.


He had previously raced an Elva Courier MkIII and Cox GTM so it’s entirely known what prompted his desire to produce a Model T-inspired kitcar. Early examples were built on the first floor of his exhaust shop and hoisted to the ground when completed.


They moved to a bigger premises in Greenfield in 1972, which incidentally is the same building later occupied by Harold Dermott’s D&H Fibreglass, later Midas Cars.


T-Bone body was steel panels with GRP wings and what was described as ‘substantial’ ladderframe chassis underpinning the whole ensemble. Ford Cortina provided the running gear, transmission and engine.


Boler’s celebrity mates, comedian Bernard Manning and fire-eating clown/magician, The Great Stromboli, both owned T-Bones and the latter even decked his out with fireman’s ladders and buckets!


Between 1971-74 we reckon about thirty T-Bones were sold.
