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 know that feeling. Sometimes you hope a car's a wreck, so you don't have to buy it ;-)

Good news it's been saved! Let me take a guess ... FJ?

Which one? And no, either way :D

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

cheers

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 :D

WRONG! None of them have had mk1s before. Further clue: he lost his in very unfortunate circumstances.

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...
