I've not seen that car n the flesh so to speak , but normally pictures make a car look good - but look at the underneath of that car - over spray every where. Not an issue if the car is priced right - but I seem to recall that was priced right up there with much cleaner looking cars.

Just don't rush to by the first one you see,

Steve,

Thanks for the input.

Went to look at this car this morning and it is rough in the boot and bonnet as well as underneath, although i was not able to get a good look underneath as you say the pictures do reflect this. Overall though i think the car is a good example,certainly not concourse, but with a proper rebuild could be a very nice car with matching numbers

Andy M inspected this vehicle in September and has confirmed the same.

Price is now down below the £45k mark, but still too expensive.
