Great news!

Well done Andy!

Thanks to Foggy who alerted me to the car being in Doncaster!

I'd seen the post about the accident but might not have seen the bit about the fact it was nearby in time!

I'm just glad it wasn't near me Andy - I don't know how you're getting away with this!

Quick update

Picked up today, bit late and dark to get any photos. Bumper, bumper mounting trumpets, one headlamp, grill and radiator needed, all of which are waiting already. (would benefit from a new pair of headlamps as other is corroded anyway.

Minor damage to drivers side wing from folding of bumper, rest of the car is undamaged. The rear silencer is a bit unahappy due to forklift. Need to check underside but they are carefull enough when loading.

I'll update when I've had a better look. The choke went a bit odd after starting, it seams very stiff and had to be operated from under the bonnet. Battery flat and terminals not tight, maybe someones disconnected at some point?

Petrol tank still 3/4 full!

For anyone watching the progress of this car, I'll probably start a thread on V3M

I've stopped bringing them home into the garden....that helps!

Also had a bit of a tidy up, the gold 360 bodyshell is now also at the yard and out of the garden so I got away with another....so far.

I'm trying to clear the drive a bit so I can start on the Mk 1 in the spring.

Well done, Andy So that's V300 No 4 now then, is it ?

Cheers

Tom

No.5...if you don't count the shell of the gold one I got fron Foggy

Theres a 3 door Mk2 only 10 miles from me just about to finish on ebay

If anyone on here is bidding please tell me so I can resist!!!!!

The danger is that at it's current price it could be banger fodder. It's a trailer away non MOT job so I expect it puts off a lot of people from far off due to transport cost. If anyone on here IS seroiusly bidding on it and they are not too far away let me know and I'll deliver it at a very reasonable price, as I now have a car transporter. Please stop me from buying another one!!!

Awww, Poor old Jack's motor is only MY85...

Resist and you'll be rewarded with an earlier car at a later date..........Probably.

I've already been to view

The 'rubbish paint job' is indeed rubbish- but about as good as cans and metalic get!

It's a pretty sound car but the front inner arches have gone and lower front wings too.

Engine clean as a whistle but non runner (battery flat) maybe thats all.

If my Jack (HD junior) was nearer driving age I try and get it for him as its 1.4 and cheaper insurance but I think 9 years to go is a bit early!! And by then he might say I don't want it

Old Jacks car just went for £311

I managed to resist!

Any one on here?

Hi Andy.
If you fell into a pool of shit, you would come
out smelling of roses
Shouldn't take much to fix it. Good luck.
Cheers Mark.

Update so I can find this again! Yes, still have this....oh dear...too many projects.

It has only been 5 years
