Mulling over adding one of these.

I'm not looking for a 'minter' nor a 'munter' for that matter but there seem to be very very few in the obvious places at present.

Looking for either a pre 73 or a late spec. Not interested in a CSK though, has to be one of the original ones.

Just needs to be a good condition re metalwork/chassis as the interior will be completely re-done, as will engine and running gear.

If anyone knows of one I would be interested.

Thanks.

You'll need a large wallet. I've been looking since about Easter and can't find anything 'reasonable'
this gives you an idea of which direction they're heading price wise....

Already spotted. wink

Personally, I suspect that is a re-furb done to make it look like No1, or maybe that Prince Charles one.

Ergo, silly mark-up.

I've found one fore £2k but it's a bit too shabby and one for 10K but it's been modernised and you are paying for all the modern bits which I would be stripping out.

I suspect fairer value may be found in Southern Europe? It cannot be too difficult to convert to RHD if you are planning to strip it down anyway? biggrin
