When you say any condition what do you mean?
I may have to part with mine but it’s a project with lots to do but it’s a complete car with none of the bad bits they often have. I have all of the panels required to finish it and it’s stripped down to the bare bones of a car. It’s a 1966 2 door California import that was left hand drive but now right hand drive. Not yet registered here but have paperwork.

Yes sold 3 of my P1800's so down to just the one now, Desperate for another- money and space is all well and good, but I regretted every sale afterwards.
I would actually quite like getting a P1800 ES - estate - instead of a coupe maybe...

If its a reasonably solid example then feel free to PM me photos and price etc over and I will get back to you... Thanks! |

You are asking for two total different beasts.
An Amazon is a good well produced but rather simple bodied car with bolted front wings and nose and not too many rust traps. A {1800 is built on the same base chassis but is completely welded/leaded semy hand built rather badly finished product of which body spares cost at least twice as much of an Amazon and are three times as hard to fit and align.
Just think what you want.

Also open to possibly the estate variant's of either P1800 or Amazon too.... I have had both in the past, and honestly don't have a preference to either model, they both have their own quirks and both cars look equally stunning with great shape and lines, in my opinion... Many thanks! |
