Paul,
Apologies for the bum steer - it did sound good over the phone and even more so when he said he'd let it go for £5k - he did tell me a dealer had offered £5.4k - he said he'd bought it earlier this year from the Sportscar Centre which is a bit worrying. By the time you'd buy it for £5k, get all those repairs done you'd have been better off paying good 400/450 money - see the thread ref: Steve Reid's 450.
Keep looking. The 350 went last weekend to a home in Blackpool (not one for knackered Wedges). The chap is going to do it up - I encouraged him to join us here. So down to the SEAC, the Rally Wedge(to finish) and the two pieces of tut (280&350 salvage) in the garage at home - I can feel a Wedge buy coming on but it won't be this one!
Cheers,
GB

450 actually, if I see anything a bit cheaper I will let you know but they are hard to find that dont need a bundle spending. I seldom buy them nowadays because if they are any good people wont pay a fair price and if they are not they cost an arm and a leg to get right. Not much change out of £1000 for an exhaust system and manifolds for instance. Good luck and if you see anything in my direction I dont mind checking it out for you sTeVeR
