Wow 5 yrs and it did'nt go up in flames! Cool!!!


Cr aig

Had her on ebay, got ed about by some Dundee jakey, ended up with more enquiries after the auction ended Car eventually went to a mechanic from Gourock, must admit, didn't even cross my mind to post on here.Apologies.

Not to worry, of course it's worth a lot less now as it was registered after 1960 and 1972 so requiring both MOT and Tax

TBH they are not a really "in" classic and have never been worth much, although the newer Middlebridge ones do fetch alot more. The ones that went up in smoke tended to be fitted with K&N's, known to blow back fuel & ignite the sound deadening under the bonnet. Never really had any issues with MOT test, just the legendary electrical system had a mind of it's own as the earthing points were not that great, along with the early 70's wiring!

Makes a good base for a kitcar!

Aye, alot are bought by rod builders for their chassis , although if you can be bothered searching on PH, there was a member who had a TVR V8 engine fitted, looked very cool & v. fast .

Allways fancied one! 3.0 Ford engine wasn't it?

Yes, is had the Essex 3ltr v6, sounds really good too.
