Last 1981 car, only moved about 44,000 yards

I think the same guy owns the first 1982 car?

I have heard about this car before... Trying to think who it was who told me about it... I am sure it was a work connection but he struggled to find out anymore info on it

What a waste, I just don't see the point, you can't do anything with it. If you drove it, you've just kissed goodbye to over half its cost & if you just want to sit & look at, I've got one that looks the same, just a bit more used.

Would take quite a bit of recommissioning, has the engine been drained ?
Also doesnt look like you get a new battery either!

I would say No to both.

Everything is as it left the factory. ;)
