Finished
Well last week with a Locost in the garage. This car belonged to a friend who passed away at Christmas leaving it in bits in the garage / shed / house
and garden.
I offered to put it back together for his wife and will be handing it back to her next week, total cost to rebuild was £637 (after selling some
spares) which includes mot / new tyres / respray / fuel pump and 3 hours with a tuner.
Thanks to all who have helped and to those who bought some spares to help keep her bill down.
Car runs very sweet, bit hard to breath above 50mph but loads of fun!
What do you think:

Anyone hazard a guess as to what it is worth, fitted with Ford 1660 X-Flow with 4 speed box?

Nice "book car"
Not the best time of year to sell her.

She won't be selling as didn't want to rush into anything for a year, it has a lot of sentimental value as Terry was always hoping to get
it fixed throughout his illness, I just wanted to give her some idea for next summer if she decides she is happy to see it go.
Thanks for the comments.
