RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - Henry Harris - 07-10-2020 It is still there if you scroll down the page.

Perhaps not in Alvis terms, although it was effectively the ultimate development of the highly regarded 12/50-12/60 range, but it was a far better car than the contemporary Austin/Morris/Standard/Vauxhall/et al equivalents. RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - David.H - 07-10-2020 And priced accordingly! More a competitor to Riley, Talbot, AC and so on. The ad says it was removed 5 years ago etc..... RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - Henry Harris - 17-04-2021 Another bodysnatch, probably for yet another half-baked so called Ulster replica. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114769547732?ul_noapp=true RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - Ivor Hawkins - 17-04-2021 These people are simply clueless, they have no interest in motoring history, only money...my next project will be a genuine, original numbers matching Speedy, I’ll take the body off and sell it and build a Ruby replica...

But it has no bids, and less than 2 hours to go. RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - Howard Wright - 17-04-2021 Hi All Before we castigate too much... This body and chassis was on eBay a short while ago with what seems a genuine reason for the sale. I think the seller collected the chassis and body separately and was going to create a car from the two parts but circumstances got in the way. Not all sellers are inveterate car breakers! Cheers Howard PS I’ve got nothing to do with the sale just an interested onlooker. RE: Body Snatchers - the ongoing story - Nick Salmon - 17-04-2021 Reasonable point, well made Howard. Whilst I share the anger and distate at apparent vandalism of perfectly recoverable or useable cars, I am mindful that sometimes there is a back story of which we are unaware. If there is a deliberate and wanton destruction of a perfectly good vehicle, then may they rot. But if something has happened that is 'force majeure' so be it.
