The car being used as an example of what can be done with a wrecked car used to belong to Mike Hailwood IIRC.
The difference is though that the crashed car was a running car that had been looked after up until the crash. Although it needed a new shell to be created and chassis repairs, I suspect the mechanical components were all in good usable condition.The one for sale is an abandoned wreck that appears to have severe/substantial corrosion on every single major and minor component on it, with no glass, wheels, engine or transmission and a wrecked interior.
The seller may think the vehicle is worth £87.5K but at that price I can't help thinking they'll be the proud owner of it for some time to come!.
As for:
"After undergoing a complete Mechanical & Structural Restoration, This car will be worth in EXCESS of $250,000 to $300,000...DOLLARS and will be sure to rise to over $500,000...DOLLARS in the years to come...!!!."
It's probably going to cost the best part of $500,000 to restore it to a usable condition as there's so much corrosion damage.
