Id love to but.... id rather spend £4k on one then spend £4k getting it mint as opposed to buying yours @ £8k then spending £4k getting it mint do you know what i mean,
how much did you/your mate get it for ?? its probably worth that.
Thats the thing cutting out the middle man to get it at the right price.
i loved minder and arthur daley |

stands you at 6k damn wish I knew that you could of had mine. solid bulkhead bare shell respray outside and in (admittedly in blue) waxoyled and dintrolled, full leather/alcantara retrim, fully rebuilt redtop, new headlining , the list goes on and I would only expect close to 5k for it as it isn't a ford of the same era. I think the concensus of opinion is unless it is mint and no work whatsoever needed you might get lucky and get close to your price the car owes you. As I say there is an arse for every seat you just have to find the right arse good luck laa _________________

Whoever buys it at that price is going to want it original or they would just buy a 3-door shel for £1k and mod it.
Buyer would have to factor at least £1k if not £2k to put it back to standard.
Anyway, sorry for harping on, I'll end it here.
Good luck with it, post some more pics when you get it. _________________ "A fine example of how not to build a car..."

Chaps
I hope you are all well
Wax those smokers for some Bank Holiday action!
Did anyone see car SOS on Sky 526 yesterday?
If not I'm sure it'll repeat
They stripped a GTE to it's shell and rebuilt
I need them to pop round to my yard!
I may get those pictures taken this weekend
Take care

£3k-£10k depending on how much work you did for free and how quickly you wanted it. _________________ "A fine example of how not to build a car..."

That doesn't sound unreasonable
I'm not in a rush and one things for sure it ain't going to fix itself!
Can you hook me up with someone trusted to price it up?
