It is no151. It is my car. I bought it for spares about a year ago but there wasn't much I needed. It would be a shame to break such a rare early car. I was planning on restoring it myself but just keeping my own car on the road takes up more spare time than I have. Time to pass it on and hope to see it back on the road one day. Richard.

Sad to see an early car like this i remember it on the bay about a year ago and at 151 it must have been built not long after mine, nice to see an early steering wheel on it these must be so rare mine has the later type sorry to say, the heater control panel looks in better shape than mine and also it has a ignition key hole, hope it goes to someone who wants to restore it and not break it. It looks red but its down as green, does anyone know what my FEU body code colour is? my car is dark blue now but i dont know if this is its original colour.

Looks like the front cross member has been bent forward and upwards a bit?
