Is it the start of a new industry, importing Australian barn finds back to the UK? I can't see there being much profit in it.

That's a late 62 Morris 850, Driftwood not a common colour, or one I've seen often?

Probably Dec 62 (delivery) I reckon with our crappy Dollar rate and the fall off in prices over here that there could be a small profit possible......

Could be cheaper than all those panels and $$$$$ for labour! :mrgreen:

On reflection and studying the pics, I think that 'Ex Aussie' example is probably not so good, probably needs a floor!

Looks a whole lot better than this though!

The cost of a decent restoration in the UK coupled with the difficulty in finding shells that are anything like decent could leave a reasonable profit for an enterprising person I reckon.

They will certainly do well. The daft thing is that you could have some made up for less than the current £75 price.
