i gave a fair chunk for it as just had to have it £8750


but cars like this can easily sell for 11k if the right buyer comes along, but on the other side there is 7k ones too

but in all honesty i couldnt care less i love the noise the drive the looks it gets, i caught some women near 7 am this morniing on cctv walking her dog she stopped and stared for a minute, walked to other side looked for a minute then walked up to it and touched the ran her hands over the wing i think she was having an orgasm pmsl


just looking into the engine side of things now to find the spec as its not standard as you can here on the video lol

My dad part exchanged his Montego Turbo for a white 1978 4 speed manual one with red leather interior back in 1995/96. He had it for 3-4 years then sold it at a car show for just under £5,000. He obviously regrets it now! I can remember as a kid i used to ride where the T-bar pillar stowage was in the back. It had cherry bombs on it and used to set off all the burglar alarms on our road!

Thats good to know prices. So far i've been offered a few for around $2-2.5k in this shape running but needing tidying up. Just depends how much it would cost to ship them over and if its worth it.

It's quick enough ran high 12 at santa pod pod going back a few years. I haven't raced it for a good few years. Let's say the handling and stopping is an acquired taste. Same as any other yank.
