Someone's having a laugh with that one. Square tunnel is the biggest give away. Not so easy to spot is the bonnet prop is on the right hand inner wing, early ones had it on the left.

Also Clubman Estates were not sold until October 1969.

Having dealt with that guy for something totally different, I was utterly sickened by his blatant and disgusting contempt for "one born every minute" on ebay. Absolute c unit. (the original seller in S Devon)

More pics and a compelling description that is bound to find a buyer :shock:

If I was going to buy it for £45k I would want the wheels/tyres to fill the "Wide Wheel Arch Extensions"

£45k.

Crikey.

He might as well say £60k, because at that price, whoever wants it is not going to really have an issue with money. Reminds me of a bloke I know who earns £32k a week. (not a footballer). He buys houses like chocolate bars.

Thanks for that, have sent you a PM. There were a few different types of SA12, that one on Ebay is actually a 1950's job with no Lucar connectors on it, later versions had a connector to one side and the last ones (late 60's on) had connectors on both sides with +ve and -ve.
