Located in Perth and Kinross, Scotland.

 

Was running and in relatively good nick with 76K on the clock until the wife caught some air into a fence and onto a large rock. It rolled off and drove home but then stood for 3 years. Got it into the garage last year and have completely stripped it down ready for a full resto which had begun very recently but plans now changed and I need it gone by June, maybe earlier. Rather than sell it off piece by piece (for which I ought to get in the region of £500 for) I would much rather see it go as a whole to someone who is keen to get it back on the road. 

 

I've put a few photos below but obviously I could post up hundreds of the various components.

 

Done so far: Cleaned up and primed front sub frame. Cleaned up and painted some of the front suspension components, lower arms, a hub etc. Most of the rot cut off the rear sub frame, was going to weld up and dip in the next couple of weeks but hey ho. Rest is dismantled. 

 

Has a nice walnut dash, half leather seats. I've got a very old fibre glass front end to go with it, that'll need work. Doors in good nick as is the boot lid. All glass good. 5 minilites, 4 with pretty much new yokos on (<250 miles), the spare good tread budget.

 

Bad points - clutch seized whilst stood and i bent the pedal trying to push it out. Shell is pretty rusty both sills, it had been welded in the drivers footwell poorly in the past and that'll need coming off, the passenger footwell is a bit better but the pillar that holds the door hinges is poor at the bottom. There's a hole rusted through in the floor/ sill toward the o/s middle where she landed on the rock. Scuttle will need replacing and the rear panel where it meets the boot floor needs doing also, photos should show this. Bonnet damaged and front panels, grill, moustache etc not good.

 

It is all there but the following items definitely needing replacing: shockers, discs, headlining, knuckles, handbrake cable at back, windscreen rubbers front and rear. If there's a particular bit you want to see photos of just let me know. Will sell for the nearest offer to £500 before end of April and if still here then I'll be putting it on the forum or ebay piece by piece :(

 

Thanks for looking,

 

Andy.

Happy to entertain any sort of offer on this, particularly if you can take it away by the end of the month.

 

I'll be putting the bits up for sale separately in a couple of weeks due to accepting an offer on the house where it's stored; it needs gone. 

 

Thanks for looking.
