I see what you mean about the photo title.

I have noticed this one for sale at least a couple of months.I did email him and he said he is open to offers, but as you say it is over priced.

For a non Iva'd locost with a gearbox problem, and probably lots more to do by the look of it its way overpriced.

needs a complete strip down to the chassis and starting from there ,is it a home built chassis or is it from a kit firm,the top wishbones look like old style mk ones ,if you can get it for the right money it could be a good little project,but as said for a non iva d car its way to dear ,whoever takes it on will need to spend a fair bit of money on it  450.00 iva to start with , then new brakes bushes paint or powder coat on the chassis wishbones ect . myself i would be paying no more than 900.00 1000.00 for it, bearing in mind you could build something like a zero on a buget  for 3.500.

I agree with aliwizard, It has been around along time and looks very tired and also i don't like the idea that its looks  like it could of had ID at sometime which it seems to have lost.
I'd say It's only good as a parts car your better of starting again with the chassis i wouldn't want to risk it personally.
