Thats an interesting shell, pity it is so rotten

Reading between the lines I get the feeling that shell isn’t actually going to come with the log book
Looks like library photos to me

Judging by the pictures and the bids there may be more to that than meets the eye?

Some unusual features….

NOS Morris horn button.

Are the replica pieces from Somerford pretty close in quality?

Not a Mini, but this should be saved.

I know it looks like a hopeless rusty old Australian lemon, but this car has history. It was used by BL to promaote the P76 in the UK as a replacement for the P5 Rover.

Doesn't quite have the class and presence of a Rover P5B though does it

That would be a big challenge to restore in the UK! I'm not thinking of taking it on anyway

As you say though, somebody should probably try to save it? Shouldn't they??

Its a little bit “Dukes of Hazard”

closest BL got to a Muscle car ?, must admit I do quite like it, presumably a Rover V8 ?

I remember seeing a couple of these at Gaydon Leyland show a few years ago. Very unusual car.

Gaydon 2014, there was a limited edition P76 Targa Florio with a standard red saloon behind

Worth every penny though. What amazing history and provenance. My Mum p/ex'd hers against a new VW Polo in 1978.

Nice plate as well;

Why so few photos?? Why list it under "Parts" and why does it have 2 different registration numbers front and back?

I do agree though. On the face of it, an attractive purchase. Very little info though.

354 ARX is on a Silver Land Rover. That plate's been on it for at least 10 years.
