Re: mm for sale
Looks nice. The ad says 'original paint work will need some work' but there is over spray on the dampers suggesting it isn't all original. But then for a 65 year old car maybe you wouldn't expect it to be!
Glad to be back!

Re: mm for sale
engine bay may have been hand painted - it's got an odd finish.
The car looks like it may have been resprayed, which itself isn' an issue, but makes me dubious about the seller.
There's a massive lack of any proper description in the ad so without a good viewing / thorough inspection I'd assume theres a LOT of work needed. With a close inspection you may find it's not that bad..

Re: mm for sale
This isn't the first offering of this particular car. Looks to be another "seller" though - I remember the "MMM" registration which, earlier, was made out to be a selling point!

Re: mm for sale
It was for sale on ebay a couple of years go.
Strange position for accelerator cable stop
I wonder what the throttle return spring is connected to with missing air filter
