for £200 every thing you got to be looking at spending a couple of thousand to get a car like this up together will more than likley be rotten as a pair and loads of the hard to find and expensive bits missing.

from those pictures on ebay it doesnt loko too bad to be honest, for 200 quid it seems a right bargain to me if you got the know how and the time and space to do it, go for it, it'd make a great project car

check my sig for my rs1600i restoration in progress thread.

Cheap for the money if its largely complete, great for a project if your looking for a clean/mint example though its best to look somewhere else
