Very chuffed - spotted this on Ebay, turned out to be within 6 miles of me, being sold by my Doctors father !

Yup. Not picked it up yet but hands have been shaken. Rebuilt on galv chassis, solid bulkhead and good engine. Clutch squeals and the steering is sloppy but overall I think its a great find. ....the chrome numberplate light has to go !

From the test drive It'll be hard enough driving in a straight line, never mind taking corners at speed :-)
