The ‘barn find’ sud on eBay that is, would you sell me the head rests please :lol:

Actually looks surprisingly solid given their reputation for dissolving and how long it looks like it’s sat in less than ideal storage conditions.

Looks more like a field find?

Some years ago, I bought a 1950's Austin A35.

It had been undersealed with 3M sealant, but some rust was evident.

Paperwork included a lifetime guarantee from 3M.

I claimed...........they paid out!!

Wonder what Zeibart said.

Yeah, parked on a bit of scrub and forgotten about rather than a barn find :D

Some sneaky photo enhancement to get the reg number and looks like it was last motd in 2012

Anyone on the forum Tempted ?
It Ended at £980. TBH It actually looks like it could be quite solid . Good luck to whoever has embarked on the project

Was watching as thought it might be a useful parts car if it was too far gone to save.

Thankfully it went for much more than I would have been willing to pay which means I don’t have to contend with the other half, space issues and the logistics of picking up a non running car 200 miles away!

It was a reasonable price compared to the last two ti rust heaps that went for thousands?

I just hope it gets built not broken for spares. Apart from the scuttle it actually looked quite decent .
Ziebart certainly worked
