Eminently restorable for someone who knows what they are doing and doesn't have prime motive of making a few quid. <br>
<br>
I'm going to be far more public about cars I have been to see and my opinion of them from now on following a situation where I had been to see a car that was then immediately scrapped following the auction<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :| --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/indifferent.gif ALT=":|"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
For those of you who follow what I do myself (you know who you are<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ) the decision was made last evening that the french blue Sprint I bought in Gloucestershire which had been in a chicken shed for 15 years is worthy of restoration. Chicken shit seems to have a peculiar preservative value believe it or not!

<br>
I hope my comments about you buying up all and sundry has'nt caused offence Al, my sense of humour does leave alot to be desired and can so easily be taken the wrong way.<br>
<br>
I appreciate it's the love of the marque and not for profit you have saved so many.<br>

I applaud you Alun.<br>
<br>
I know all about scrapping immediately after the auction finishes - remember the blue 1500TC Auto I went to see last year?<br>
<br>
Thankfully, I learnt from that salutory experience and didn't let it happen again. Hence £60 later I have the carmine 1500TC Auto in my garage.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Most of these can be very economically MOT'd. And those that are utterly genuinely past it make good parts sources. So lets keep saving them people, because if we don't no one else is going to.....
