after something i can jump in and drive really, or needs mechanical work to get going.

there was a perfect car on ebay a month of so back, a gulf blue 61 or 62 on fuchs, had a big ida motor and it was up for 7k but needed minimal work to put back on the road, any one know if it sold?
i believe it had alot of work done at funkenblitz... and the car was in hampshire somewhere, anyone know the owner?

edit, found the car, now need to find the owner!

, it was a good base car exactly what i'm after, it would be stupid to leave the 2276 in it
gulf blue , ratty and on early fuchs
no point in owning a shiny car anymore as others will always fuck it up for you!
