£200 takes it but will need to trailored unless your very brave/stupid.

Will need rear sills patched/replaced
Small patches welded under the scuttle in the corners.
New brake lines and other bits n pieces

Would make a great project for somone just be aware its not in the best condition ever. Theres quite a few scratches/ dents from people walking past it over the years. I was told it had been stored in a garage since 1990 until about 4/5 months ago when a mate bought it. He didnt have the time for it and sold it to me beleiving the car was solid. After buying it and getting it running properly i found a hole in each rear seal, and popped a brake line which i did a bodge repair on with a short bit of hose. It wont hold, just it gave it a good enough pedal to move around the yard at work. Having only bought it to get mot'd and to runaround in, i cant afford to keep it as i have a nova which im currently putting a 2ltr in.

I would love to come on here after selling it and find a nice WIP thread with a bare shell respray and c20let going in, its rare and i hope it goes to a good home. It owes me around £280 but i need somthing back soon so first offer of £200 takes it.

Any questions email me at nova3oy@hotmail.co.uk or PM me on here. I'll reply asap.

edited- Sorry forgot to mention the engine. It runs, but smoked when i took it up the road but it has been standing for a long time. It didnt run very well when i got it, found it to be a snapped valve spring, i replaced that but as i said it does smoke. Its ok on idle, just smokes when driven. It could clear but i dont want to say it will because i honestly dont know. Mate(mechanic) reckons its possibly perished valve stem seals.
