Not exactly for this forum but thought it worth a mention have been offered a '65 Morris Minor - hasn't been on the road for 14 years or so, bought by current owner 4 years ago as an abandoned project - has been dry stored all that time but has been moved outside in the last 2 months , displaced by a Mk4 spitfire - this moggie has a fully reconditioned 1100 engine and box is bodily very sound and doesn't have much rust evident bar the bootlid - interior is a state (filthy) but complete and there is no headlining fitted, battery has been pinched for other purposes. Owner currently in hospital after a couple of heart attacks and has been persuaded to let this car go which he's agreed to on condition that its gone by the time he comes home. Car comes with loads of spares too - located north Bristol - would have to be trailered / towed away - looking for £250 which is the price originally paid for it - lots of expensive remedial work has been done since - if anyone interested or knows anyone who might be drop me a mail and i'll put you in touch with owners son who will happily discuss at length! (owner an incorrigible tinkerer who needs temptation removed PDQ)
& p.s I know should go in classifieds but this car has to go quickly! will be fleabayed if not gone within the week.........

Would have, but Bristol is even further away from me than the Landy I am currently chasing. Thats in London, I am on Skye. Actually fancy an Anglia or Cortina but thats another thread completely.
