Looks like a big project that, but yes I hope someone saves it. Strange custom front end on it. When did they start making the 350 FHC? Is 83 not a wee bit early?

Front end looks like a copy of the one-off Tasmin Turbo, just pre dating the 350

99p - it's a crying shame. Hope someone rescues it for restoration rather than breaking it for spares.

The factory made two bodies of this style, the first in my garage, the second this one with a 3.5 RV8.

Iv'e heard about this car many times yet never seen it in the flesh. Would be interested if it came out of a mould or was 'created'!

Should make for an interesting bidding war, especially if the seller gets wind of this thread whistle

Interesting that it's on NI plates.

"WAS RUNNING WELL PARKED UP 4 YEARS"

Christ - must have bad weather in NI, it looks like it has been there more than 4 years.

I was hoping this one was going to come in under the radar...... Oh well off to the museum it goes, never to be driven again.
