The car is currently at a point where you can either finish the last few bits and MOT it and drive it. Or I have included nearly all the extra parts you would need to put the car through IVA. The choice is yours.

You can see the build on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/356replica

I am happy to remove the engine and get the gearbox rebuilt and then refit it all back to as you see it now and would be looking for £20k but if you wanted to do that yourself and take it as is I would take £18k – Let talk

May consider PX with cash my way but only running and driving considered

Car located in Swindon, Wiltshire, UK
