Saw this linked on ebay.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2811854806...d=530083400379

Says it was pulled from a barn, but looks more like it was pulled from a pond.

Q plate, no keys, no documents, but to good to scrap.
discuss.


I personally wouldn't go near the thing with a barge pole.

I suppose, to find a positive point, though moldy, the arches look to be in good shape!

Gads, I'd be scared I caught some respriatory illness going near that, I'd rather roll about in a skip full of asbestos.

'the exterior body work is very straight with no damage'

Dont mind the arches hanging off in the picture, it gives you a 3D look!

It's not that bad, This is what "t-cut" is meant for!

Hey come on if you have a CAB it would be a good source of parts, the fact that it is a q plate does affect what you would pay.

the seller should go to 'we buy any car' and see what they offer and see if they stick to their word!
