Price already at £4,000 and if I read the advert right, he wants in the order of £7,000 with PX being offered!  For a 1970 car.  A Viva! :o :o :o ::)

I never liked them new ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

Very nice indeed.Looks really well put together,and would surprise a lot of more modern machinery with that engine under the bonnet. Not worth 7 grand though imo.

But this one wasn't. And Crayford conversions did not have that engine either - or that interior. So in many ways it is one off.

I wonder how long that fellow has been trying to get out of the speedo?

That is not your usual job - nice looking car but not for me.
