I am asked this all the time as well and even when I explain (in simple, non-anorak terms), I get an odd look as it seems to be ingrained in the "unenlightened". ;) :lol:

That must have been one of those "No it isn't for sale. I'm keeping it to restore myself one day" cars. :cry:

I think we all know a few of them.

I think recovery might be a challenge - and his "better" shell isn't all that great either is it! Quite a project that.

The £500 only covers your tetanus shot + medical liability insurance to keep them off the hook..

In a strange mini meets mk3 Ford Escort and Triumph Herald I quite like that.

It might be a little better with Metro mark 1 head lights, being a little smaller would give a less squashed look to the front but on the whole it looks well done.
