Not a bad price if the body is as good as it looks but full restoration will be very expensive.

hi Chaps, does the car have any club history? I would have thought that this must have belonged to one of our members?

Just found the car on a salvage company website. The asking price there is 3995 pounds. Seems too much to me.
