As above it is strong money for what it is.
Looking at the photos, I think this is a bitsa car, made of out of other cars. Which is all well and good, and often legit, but it could also be bad sign too.
The giveaways are the Racing Green/Racing Flame/Checkmate seats which are from 1989/90, combined with the fact it has the black door handles and boot handle from the same model, plus fixed rear windows, from that model too. Of course these features appeared on other models too.
People don't blank the reg number out for no reason, they perhaps don't want you to see the MOT history.
No photos of engine bay either.
I'd be asking lots of questions, and be interested to get hold higher res photos before going near it, as theres a reg number engraved to the windows, if this doesn't match the displayed reg, walk away.
The other thing is, with a flip front, you will need to declare that and any other mods to your insurance, so get some quotes, but you'll need the reg number first.
In my humble opinion, if you have £5k to spend, there are better ways to spend it, I would look for a straight unmolested example, there will be more coming for sale in the next few months I'd hope.
