Described as a convertible for restoration? That's beyond wishful thinking.

Less of a 'barn find' and more of a 'middle of a field find.' Should be ok with a bit of fettling....... possibly bits of more than one car there!

It actually appears to be quite a potentially restorable one, or at least a goldmine of spares under the tarpaulin - which you would think the seller could have removed just to give some idea of what to expect...
Looks like it was originally almond green, then re-painted Old English White, then light blue at various stages!

Yes I agree. Well overpriced. I suppose it is "road legal" on the basis that it is old enough to be exempt from requiring and MOT
You'd think somebody expecting over £4000 for a Minor might have given it a wash wouldn't you? It certainly has potential but will still be a lot of work - and the hard to find windscreen trims are missing.

A van on ebay for £22,000 I know what I would spend my money on and it wouldn't be that van

Saw this on ebay and had to revive this thread

Surely the decimal point in the wrong place. MoT'd cars for rolling improvement go for less than this!
Ooh... now reduced to £1500. Seriously?
