There are a few for sale here (www.theescortagency.net) i think, plus they should be able to help you out with pretty much any info you need with regards to restoring one. Or you could pay them to build you one!!! Remember and get a build thread up in the Readers Cars section when you get restoring!

To pay the EscortAgency to do a full resto you realise itll be close to £30k ?

Yes they are extremely dear but good.

I was hoping to get a cheapish rolling shell and restore it slowly but surely smile

You'll have to keep an eye out for my progress too, as I'm making the restoration (fast road / race) my mission from now on! It's really buggin me that I've not made more progress with it.
