| And a better piece of rope, or a strap, to hold the door shut. |

If he can count that high, I'd expect his spelling & punctuation to be better.
It's probably 160,000 Tanzanian shillings, which is about 58 quid, which is about what it's worth, which is about what you'd get at the scrap yard.
& you'll probably have to pay by Western Union...................

You partially correct, but way out two points!
160,000 Tanzanian shillings, probably correct. 
The worth of an Fordson like pictured is substantially more than £58
(You may be advised to brush up on your valuations?)
Scrap yards, giving £58 for this, you would be getting very ripped off! I can get about £200 - £250 for any car you take, and that is modern rubbish.
Why would you take this to a scrap yard?
I have often wonder why people take classics to scrap them, when I see something old in the scrap yard. |

Sorry Buzzy - it was mostly a joke! I live in the US & rather out of touch with the UK markets.
I drove something similar on Meals-On-Wheels service in the 60's.

The same person also has another cheap car for sale, but the phone number appears to be wrong. There doesn't appear to be a 78 area code. Numbers are 7 digits. 255 78 4596556

I think I'd want it fitting with headlamp lenses on both sides, for £160k.....
