At least the '24 Chummy does not pretend to be an absolute genuine discovery, and is offered by a trader who do not, as far as I know, have a bad name at all, offering useable machines rather than "investments" It has everything needed to get much VSCC and other trialling use, if we ever get to trialling again, and the price is not silly.
The ad on that site that has me smiling is the '27 Chummy, offered at a fiver less than 23g, worth every ha'penny guv. The first item that would worry me is the completely rebuilt engine, since when ten years in which it has been "taken out for the occasional local run." Not run in then, and probably glazed bores. So it's possibly a big engine job to start with.
Certainly the pile of bits is a ridiculous price, I mean there is no sign of the leather satchels to be fitted on the completed car. No German dealers will be rushing over to collect this one.
