Well, it will be particularly interesting to see how much it goes for.
My guess, £3.5k.(or am I being naive?)

I suspect even in that condition it will go for substantially more than £3.5K.

Nice to see pictures of the underneath which looks very good.
I can see it making more than £3.5k too.

Current bid at £4350, by the time you recommission her, leather £1200ish, proper respray £2000ish and various other things to come to light she will probably owe you £8000.

Personally, Iwouldn't redo the leather, just restore and preserve the original ie clean and treat it. So nicer to preserve a rare piece of history than just throw it away and fit repro.... I mean someone is going to be paying a lot of money for this car and to then rip out and replace one of its unique features seems a bit silly when the original is in such a reasonable state of preservation.
But yes it'll probably stand the owner at getting on for £8k when fully sorted and on the road. But then if you think thats expensive buy a cheaper million......

Looking like a bargain at the moment at £4650 compared to some of the rotten junk you see on the bay :(
