as you say - big shame.

Ditto - 65 RHD!

Surely someone on here wants/needs a new challenge?

Not me - the Boss would kill me if I brought any more tin home

But it has to go to someone who will look after it.

I rather like it.... but far to many projects at the moment.

Talk about being tempted...
But would really need to know where it is located before I thought of bidding.

Hello there.

Yes, I know this car.
If it is truly the same one..

It was sold as a complete,,almost running car in 2005 for a bit less than the 2K its advertised at!

It was/is veeery rusty....!

But at the time still had most of its orginal bits and with 10-15K of work could have been made really good.

Kind regards
David

hey that's my job..

Yet another RHD car there common I don't want one..

Proceed with caution is my advice one this.. might only be worth that in bits.. I paid back in 2002 £1600 for my RHD car and I only bought it with the view that once I had calmed down about buying another 912 I would look at the sums and if it didn't add up to restore it.. ( which it was VERY wide of the mark!!!!! ) I would strip it off the parts and I did sold off things like lights gear box wings that came with it and piston / cylinder soon ended up with free engine free inteiror and free Fusch wheels. and loads of other stuff.

In years to come I will kick my self but it was rusty !!!!!!!! no more rusty and than rusty.... no more again!!

You're right there. LHD makes other drivers look twice at traffic lights

OK...I'll confess, it was me!

Yet to give it a full inspection, but it doesnt look all that bad. It needs work, (and a lot of glass!) but it has masses of potential.

Great history file, with AFN service history sheets from '66 through to the mid 70's, which is good to see. All new brakes last year and a rebuilt engine a few years back - Should have it running tomorrow.
