Series 1 88in

Testing the water here.
I have a 1957 88in that has been sitting for the last 20 years, I bought in in August 93 as a project for the winter...got married, house, kids, big building project.....and I've never done much with it. I think its time to let some-one loose on it who can...
Its been stripped down and comprises a rolling chassis in one shed, the bodywork in pieces in another and several boxes of smaller components in another. It has had a 2.25 engine and later gearbox fitted at some point. The Chassis has been repaired with a later rear cross-member. No seats, wing tops a bit ratty, top rail of bulkhead likewise.
I have the V5, the VRN is TXT 485, Chassis is 111713XXX. Its located an hour north of Glasgow.
I'll get some pictures up over the weekend. I know it needs work and the probably engine needs replaced. I have another 2.25 if that was of interest.   PM me if its of interest, a decent offer is all I'm after.
Gene.
If its not broken you are not trying hard enough....

A fair bit of interest in this on here and the S1 club forum so probably best if I get some photos up and people can see what they think its worth.

I'll get some photos in daylight tomorrow.

Cheers,

Nope. Planning to stick it on Ebay and other forums next month, once folks Bank Balances have recovered from Christmas !
