Bought this yesterday, but I don't fancy welding it all up as ive found a better one. original 1.9 gl, complete and running (drove it home) all paperwork v5, handbooks manuals ect.. EDIT -I now have the v5 in my name. no battery included, but can lend 1 to get on trailer. its quite rotten hence £100. no messing or offers. no more pics or legwork, I'm selling it for what I payed, if I have to put any effort into it I will have to put more money on it.

Too rare to use as spares! But not a weekends work either. Will be a long term project but need the carb to get mine MOTed. Will reply later this evening, @ work and MOC is blocked.

Pm'd you, as I reckon this would look fantastic fully prostreet and a V8 with blower poking through the bonnet, but would be good to have it back on the road.
Cheers,
Stu.

Always looking for the next project!

I just wanted it gone asap.
I feel bad now, but on the bright side mate, things like this go through my hands all the time,and i owe you one now..
Give me a couple of days, il probably have somthing needing much less work, it may even be that lotus carlton rep.

Just let me know if something else turns up, it was the shape I was after more than the car if that makes sense. Cheers, Stu.

Hi Stu,
If its the shape that you're after would a Monza do? Still got that rotten, rotten Monza at Wittering. I need to finish getting what I want off it, but you can have the shell if it's any use?

Glad this is getting saved as they are super rare now. They can hide rot a wee bit as you can see. As you can see in this pic all looks good, But a few hours of digging later it looked like this, Then on to the rebuild, Done, These cars are so worth saving and it was worth every penny I spent on it as you just never see them on the road anymore, It would be good to find out how many coupe's are left on the road now. Anyway good luck with the car mate. Ta, Deano.
