Why do people think registration attached to piles of rust are worth money?
The 'car' might be worth more for having a registration document, but the registration alone is absolutely worthless as it stands

I am not so familiar with later S types but given this carb set up has provision for advance retard bulb, and that is has crossover pipes, is it from an S?

This seller is usually pretty good but I am wondering if this is a mistake... and could be someone on here perhaps??

On the seats should there be a plaque on the seats where the hole/patch is? Seems coincidental that they are both "damaged" in the same place.

It really does - just a shame it has a big hole in the roof.
If I hadn't just bought a Mk1 shell I would've been very tempted
