GRP seat buck / project

a while back I built a buck from which I planned to make a mould to produce a period style bucket seat in GRP.
This was intended for use in my Mk1 mini, but could be used in many other Period Saloon cars, or could vert easily be chopped and narrowed to fit a locost / 7 type car, though it doesn't suit my current project.

With the mini gone, I keep tripping over it, so if anyone is interested, I'm looking to sell it on and clear some space.

it'll just need a quick clean up and a coat of 2 pack top coat to get it ready to take lift off it. I planned to take a moulding off the buck, then take the mould off that, so the finished surface is on the outside, but you could also do it with the finished side on the top / inside as well.

It has the dams in place and is designed as a simple one piece mould. You could make your fortune selling shells for people to trim themselves! (I was going to use needlecord, held in place with tight'n'fast edging, but leather, cloth, vinyl could all be used)

postage might be costly, as I'm near Edinburgh.

there are a good few hours in it, but I'll take £120 for it, or would consider a trade for bits I can use on my current clubmans car project- 998 / small bore inline A-series engine bits
