Must be pretty hard to sell. It is not too expensive, but who would be interested in this? Only die-hard fans of a very rare 50s family car. It will not sell on its fabulous lines or its sporty characteristics. The owner must brace himself to all who point out the tatty grilles.
Seats seem to be leathercloth, not leather?

Perhaps auction is the best way to sell it. I say let the market decide if its worth what the vendor thinks it is.

Personally, I would look elsewhere.

(enough said ...)

At least the bonnet won't have rotted...?

I think it's a nice car, but the SM1500 grill suits the body better. I have a friend who has an SM1500 in very original sort of oily rag condition and it's a lovely car.

I think the Singer is back on ebay but listed about twice the price?
