Possibly engine seized, but that's fixable / replaceable. Not sure if it's a column auto or maybe a 3-speed manual? The relevant info for that year / model will be on Vauxpedia. From the pics it looks like a great project for someone. Interior is in fantastic condition.

It's like something out of 'Get Carter'.

FFS just look at this vandalism from The Professionals.

Three speed manual, if it was an auto the selector would be on the floor. Nothing I can do about it but I really hope someone saves that.

Interesting.

This might actually be the same car, in a previous ownership....

Seems these RHD cars - and there were quite a few of them - came in via the importer's premises in Chiswick..... Googling suggests they were on the Great West Road at Chiswick Flyover, so possibly not far from where Fiat had a premises with a massive concrete clock standing outside.

Very interesting nice detective work!  I'd guess that it is the very same car. The under bonnet shots show light blue like in the advert blurb.

painted it blue many years ago unknown why maybe just preference. Last owner painted back to original amc dark burgundy colour.

957UUR is on a new 2014 Mini now with low millage, also both AMCs have original owners handbooks.

Apparently Monteverdi was too busy to engineer the running gear for the Hai so sub-contracted it out as a project for the third year Craft and Design kids.

Who the hell built that then were so proud of it they released it as a press photo?

I remember reading that the Hai was supposed to be a bit of a handful to drive hard.  Having seen that photo I can quite believe it.

OK, I know this one is a bit grim in several different ways, but these are just about the best looking hearses ever.

Omg ! I could rock that coz I love shonky shite. 3.5 hour trip, one way to take a look ? Shite ! 

Apart from Vulgs lovely but, erm, somewhat trying one, are they really shit or worthwhile shite ?

Logistics could cost a bit. Ball locks ! I have the dosh. More ball locks ! Might have a word with Vulg.
