fbj, its every bit as good in the flesh as in the pics, the guy chris who built it reconed to have over 10 grand in the engine alone.
and its registered for the road and all the lights work so it will pass an mot.

apparently, he is imminently emigrating to australia and he wont be allowed to import it with him when he goes.

There must a damned good reason for him to go to Oz, and leave that! :shock:

I cant bid on it, cos I'd have to get a longer shed to fit it in
