Shame the interior is missing, but for £200 it's worth buying by someone either as a spares donor, or ideally as a long-term project. If it's not rotten, then tracking down a lost cause with a decent interior would be the way to go imho.

The towbar is probably worth half the opening bid price on its own Smile

I was talking to someone who knows the car earlier, he said it's made of rust and filler, also that the scrapyard selling it does banger racing so if it had been solid they would have raced it. A real shame, I love the two-tone paintwork and whitewalls on it.
