Been watching that for a while.. If I didn't have so much on I might be tempted. Could turn out to be a bargain.. Needs a front diff, looks like the diff lock panel is broken off. Can't quite zoom in enough on pics to tell

Wasn't this advertised before, maybe 8-9 months ago?

I'm not so sure. The pics were definitely taken in the UK, and one shows a sign in the background reading "Dunheved Motors". The location's shown as Launceston, Cornwall.

There is a Dunheved Motors in Launceston, and the header pic on their facebook page is...

i think its a genuine sale, just a bit of a money pit i reckon (arent they all? i paid 3X that for mine and god knows what ive sunk into it and i'm still going :lol: ). When it was last for sale it looked a lot more rotten. It went for cheap money though, i would have bid if i was able.

If it comes up again and anyone is interested I'll go up and have a look for you. Launceston is only an hour up the road which in Cornish is virtually next door! Could probably get Hotpod interested in a trip as well.
