Spectre For Sale
Hi Guys, My brother has recently aquired a spectre r45, he is trying to sell it and has asked if i can put it on here for him:
Heres the link for pictures:

Heres the Advert:
Why buy a kit car when you can have a real supercar for less money?
Spectre R45 Prototype - Needs Work.
This is the one of the very rare Spectre R45s supercars cars that were manufactured. This car was the first one made and was Spectre's Motor
Show car at Earls Court. It was used on the road and track by the factory but later had some parts removed when it was used as a static display model.
It needs these parts refitting and some work making some items that have been lost over the years.
Another R45 recently changed hands for well over £30k.
Unique opportunity. Bodywork in excellent condition. Interior needs to be fitted. Most parts included to complete. Comes with new (old stock) Ford 4.6
litre Mustang Cobra SVT 32 Valve quad-cam engine and 6-speed Getrag transmission. No welding required, as car has been stored indoors all its life and
chassis is totally rust-free. Ideal for someone who has kit car building experience and the time to spend on it. It has been previously registered and
used on the road and a V5 registration document is included. So it will be fully road legal once an MOT has been passed and will not need to pass the
expensive (£450)IVA test.
The car can be viewed near Chelmsford in Essex.
U2U for more details
Thanks

With the Mustang engine it should do 0-60 in just over 4 seconds and hit 180+mph

The only thing that might be slightly misleading in the ad, is the amount of work to be done.... All those brackets to mount things etc..., it was
once a running car so no need for IVA, just a MOT to get it on the road.
At the moment its a rolling chassis with brakes and steering. Driveshafts, engine, gearbox is all included in that price and for a bit more is all the
production moulds for the bodywork.
