Trim looks salvageable.

Someone tell me the whole thing isn't viable. Please. Before I start bidding..

Actually I've just seen the rest of the pictures!

My bodywork blokes would have me certified if I brought that in. What a shame..

Has there ever been a car that's rotted to quite that extent? Looks like they've moved it with a wrecking ball!

Looks like there's a load of salvageable bits on it though, including probably a 997 engine..

What a waste! Probably a reasonable car before the hedge took over.

That's got to be worth re-shelling

What is it worth realistically and could a V5 be sourced?

1071 project here....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Austin-Morris ... SS:GB:1120

A completely restored one in Almond Green was for sale for only £5K more than that a week or two ago, got snapped up pretty quick though! (and is back on Car and Classic already!)

Reading the questions/answers suggests that the "real car" might be in Japan, so we might see a replica of it shortly! I expect somebody has recorded the reg. numbers so we know what to look out for

Is this what's known as a "Hedge Fund"?
