$7,250 right now. Sure, there's going to be lots of time and money needing invested in it, but...

Luckily, it comes with a Haynes manual. Reassembly is a reversal of dismantling. :)

Sold for $13,250. At least you know what needs doing - everything. Never quite sure what to think about these kind of things - it's not quite paying for a chassis and engine number alone, but it's near to it.

Quite a lot of potential I would say especially if youy can do most of the donkey work yourself. Lots of dodgy welding to undo and do properly (Guy Martin would be well impressed) However with time effort and patience it could be a very nice car. Labour rates if done professionally though could be a killer if not talked through carefully and project managed forensically.

Totally agree with above.

As a DIY project, just great. Time saved stripping it down worth a fortune in grazed knuckles.
Some people love these things just for the fun of the journey to do the car and with labour costing £0 per hour, minimise the use of specialists and add the satisfaction of "I did that", wonderful.

Takes me back to 1988 and my £3K 911 bitza.
