More work for Martin Prior I suspect.

I think they are to need more than a light restoration? Beware, pictures always flatter a car...

Colin, he doesn’t say for light restoration, he says they have seen better days, an accurate description with good photos. He’s not trying to hoodwink anyone as far as I can see.

Seem to be honest images, and the Chummy benefits from no obvious posidrive fastenings so it has to be all right.

This was offered near Tewksbury, the numerous boxes of bits seemed to include a three speed box amongst other delights.
