'Dry stored in a museum' Really? Was that for one day and then the rest of the time it was outside?
I know people have different ideas of excellent condition, but that surely isn't it.
This is excellent condition:
Sorry it's not a Kat.

Oooo! That's nice. I'll have to get high quality images of each side to use as a reference for my one, though it's going to be a more recommission than restoration. Progress is slow though as not had much time for the garage.

Let me know when you want them and I will email you some. It's a 1979 Mk1, but with a Mk3 colour scheme I think. I like it and that's all that matters.
I am hoping that Smallkat will be as good as that one day.

Back to the original listing ...the rare machine from a museum ...wrong indicators, 4-1 exhaust which is understandable , but not for a museum model you'd have thought ...then the obvious it's a Jap import model ....OR it's got a GT engine fitted That would make it rarer ....
£3 grand , nearer £1450 , but hey!

£1500 is a quite high for spares of repairs ...that said intermittent starting could be as simple as dirty starter button ....or as frustating as a wire from key switch through headlamp to solonoid then on to starter itself ....
For that exciting adventure,/ gamble

£250 personally if it's an X reg maybe a touch more as it can be MOT , tax free Jan 1 .
