Ebay has a section for kit cars, and you see this sort of thing on there a lot. I think your asking price is OK, although the 1600 pinto is about the lowest in terms of popularity and will definitely put some people off.

I suppose finishing it yourself and selling it for quite a bit more (if you change the engine) is out of the question?

I might be interested, but I think it's a tad too much money if I'm honest.

With only a 1.6 and still needing completion and other money spending on it I guess most people will go one of two ways, buy a completley new kit and start from scratch or pay a bit more and buy one that's finished and road legal.

If you would consider offers in the region of £1000 I think it'd go.

Sounds like a piss take I know, but seriously it's not.

a non finished project will always sell to a low price...especially when its presented in such a way like your advert at PH...a dirty, untidy, unfinished kit...sorry for this harsh words..i would not pay more than 800-1200 pound for that.

I tried to sell a mint half built Westfield once....had no chance........ploughed ahead and finished it, ran it for twelve months and sold it fairly easily for £7k....

Also the 1600 Pinto is a snag, 2 Litre would be better...........

I think you are looking around £1200 if you are lucky I am afraid..........
