Default My American Sierra Cosworth...kinda :)

My Merkur XR4Ti...it's my 5th one...I can't keep away from them.

It was parked up in 1998/99 & dug out, by me, from under a tree about 1 month ago.

She's now on the road to recovery.

Varies on condition obviously.

Non-runners under $1000

Runners I'd say between $1 - $5000

I've been running local errands in it. Nothing too far.
She needs a lot of going through after sitting for so long.
