Don't know what your budget is but why not call about some of the cars that are advertised for silly money,possibly the owners are realising the price they are asking isn't what they will get so may come back down to earth if somebody genuine (not a trader) and in the know is interested in their car.
Not everyone is holding out for the last penny they can get so you may get lucky.

If it's going to be a track car you're as well buying a build up that's not worth proper cossie money if you can find one, sometimes its a waiting game til something pops up but there's usually always something eventually

That's pretty much my thoughts at the minute. Just a case of seeing what comes up.

I know he had it for sale before, but he put this on his Facebook page 2 days ago, so looks like he's got it back for sale.
