Good point, If anyone named Tim joins the forum soon. You've never heard of me, and there was never a project A.

Joking aside the car was in good conidtion apart from the annoying spots of rust. Although the front wheels did need aligning properly.

Apart from that it was a top motor (arthur daily impression)

The car looked brilliant when you finished and how spot on was I with that valuation? Now what is all this about a missed opportunity? Which bar steward has been at it again?

Stole? Hang about! Wink

That listing had been running for hours. I pressed the Buy It Now button within 10 seconds of starting to read it. At that price, I can strip it and trebble my money. But I have grander plans for this car and it will hopefully live to see a few more days yet.

Moral here is the early bird catches the worm. You have to remember that I am basically a businessman and very successful too. I never, ever miss a chance.

Keep looking through the listings there are two more on there right now that you should buy. I will wait until the morning and if they are still there I will have them as well!
