Re: 1980 Mk1 for parts on the bay
I just called him. It's been sold...and I've worked out who to. It's someone on here...and he plans to put it back on the road. Happy days!
I'll leave him to reveal all in due course...
cheers

I'm enjoying this game. A small clue: This will feel like justice has been done for this gentleman. He deserves a mk1...again.

Re: 1980 Mk1 for parts on the bay
mac maybe? he recently did a really nice job on that 340, i'd like to see him get his hands on a 343.
whoever it will be glad is is getting restored, mk1's deserve to

Re: 1980 Mk1 for parts on the bay
WRONG! None of them have had mk1s before. Further clue: he lost his in very unfortunate circumstances.

Re: 1980 Mk1 for parts on the bay
True...but it was an 82MY mk2. Just as unfortunate, but rather different circumstances...and a mk1.

"Drive" might not be the right word for it, but you're thinking along the right lines. In fact, I reckon you've probably got it...
