That looks like an interesting project for someone who has the time, skill and cash to do it. Screen intact, that's worth 400 for a start. I actually like the rear and front treatment and I want to do something like it to the rear of mine, but wider in the centre, to hide the exhaust header but I'm happy with the standard front and sides, for now. Not quite sure what is going on with the headlights though, I hope the intention wasn't to mount something in the nose as that wouldn't work height wise, legally or effectively. Now, if those louvers were to drop down at the rear to expose a pair of Capri headlights as in Nova, it would work. Should have used a flexible filler like 'Plastic Padding' or 'P38' though to avoid the cracking. Defiantly a starting from -10 points from new, and I wouldn't even bother with the body at all until the chassis is up and running. Rear wheels are nice but could one get the matching fronts, say 8x 15 with 225/60-R15? 255/60-R15 would fit the 10x15 wheels and fill the arch better like mine. Interior is a start from scratch job, which in many ways is easier than undoing someones idea of a 'dream' interior. I don't have safety markings on my screen either, something I am going to have to remedy for the Spanish ITV by acid etching a copy of the Pilkington one we have on the tech page and a KITE mark. Hope it goes to a seriously able and sensible person and doesn't end up scrapped. We have already lost 2 SSs and 2 RVs this year that I know off already Another one for the register, yeah!

Looks like the gloves are off as the buy it now price of £300 has been removed, would have been a bargain at that price. If 1 didn't already have my Nova project i would have gone for this myself, UUmmm or can i get this in my garage / workshop as well??

If you zoom in on the pics it looks like the front end louves have been bonded in place so front lights are a question. Rear wheels look like Suzuki Vitara fat boy alloys with adapters fitted......Wolfrace slot or turbo vecs are the wheels for this car imo. Rear end is sitting far too high on chassis so maybe some suspension issues to sort...see other thread on here. Chassis is basic so no probs for any half competent spannermonkey.....bodywork....paint....electrics...then the dreaded IVA. All in all a few issues to consider but a good start for somebody.....hope it doesn't go just for the screen.
Buy it now price disappeared as soon as the first bid went in
