It does not look very comfortable on the fork lift and it is in Northern Ireland, so a bit expensive to collect, unless of course you live in the lovely Emerald Isle.

I doubt that will see the road again, too much work for too little return. Parts only or banger racing.

A lot of spiders are going to be very unhappy and homeless. Doesn't look in too bad condition body wise though and at least it appears complete, and not just a pile of bits. Always a bonus.

And a photo confirming the automatic box too, which is unusual. Very tempting, but NI is too far. Also being a MkII Century those will be twin HD6 SUs, even more temptation!

It has a look of a car that's been standing outside for a many years. A challenge or spares?
