considering the age of the car, it isn't in too bad a condition---as long as one has a fully equiped workshop, lots of money, lots of skill and lots of time. I have seen cars in far worse condition be fully restored.

well... I know it could be restored...
probably easer to make a look alike...

Engine ... too much missing for what seller is asking...
Air flter housng not seen one for sale for years as t s a 57 on;ly

Car..... other than the usual stuff for a resto..
Seats... early ones doubt £1k would get you a pair...
Think someone s remaking them for £1k each)
Tank £700
Sun-visors £250+
Wheels £4-500
correct drive shafts and couplings prob £300-400



Rear lights and speedo are included so that is good or that would be £1k+


rest as Tom says is really time and money.....

Prob easier to simply fit a 650 engine and syncro box...
buy some L/F rear wishbones and fit later drive shafts and couplings



I would sell a more complete one for a shade more than that and probably include most of the new panels needed........

Someone once had the cheek to offer me £3k for an N

because it needed resto.....
