Hi Andy,
It sold for more than I was expecting it to.
Will we see this one relisted soon "due to timewaster"?.....

Hi Andrew,
To be fair it was an honest description so I cant see how the sale should fall through.
Ebay needs to step in with hefty fine if/when it does.......

:goodluck: To whoever bought it.

Hi Andy,
That's how it should work in an ideal world. Will the buyer reconsider in the cold light of day though?
Auctions push a number of our psychological buttons, and the phenomenon of “auction fever” is well documented.
I must admit, I've done it myself, although not with a car.

:agree:
You sure you didn't buy it :?: :?: :lol:

I hope whoever has, knows what they may have let themselves in for, as it's not a car you should restore on the cheap IMO.

I do too. It would be great to see this car restored and back on the road again.

No way you could do this one on the cheap Andy just depends what parts/panels the buyer has hidden away.... If you were starting from scratch .... Get ready.. £££££ Lol
