Good question Jim and to which I bet no one really has the answer!

I reckon there can't be too many left now in original condition (any by original I mean fairly standard, bar maybe different wheels or suspension) but it would be interesting to find out. Maybe it's worth us starting a poll?

Mines completely standard apart from the BRM Servo conversion and a Sachs Suspension. everything else is totally unrestored and original.  Been stored in garage for 15 yrs, but more determined this year to get it back on road. I have tried turning engine over by hand and it's not seized (last started about 5 yrs ago).  Tried to get running last year, but no fuel getting to spark, hopefully just a fuel pump/relay issue rather than 'gummed up fuel lines'.  Only issue is not much mechanical expertise so could do with finding a local mechanic to work on it in spare time. - any ideas? Anyway, here's a picture taken about 8 yrs ago when it last came out of the garage

Just not sure how much work is needed to get it back running. Body, trim and interior are as new - the seats and carpets have been covered since I bought it 25 yrs ago, body does not even have a scratch or parking ding.  I recon it will need new hoses, cam belt, water pump, battery, brakes all round (it's on its original disc's still!) all fluids changing. Hopefully clutch is okay and the fuelling issue won't be too major. Add in a set of new tyres (although they were virtually new when put away, they have been standing too long). So, I have a budget of £1500 ish just need someone to help out at reasonable rates.

Good luck getting it back on the road Richard. It's all nuts and bolts so don't be shy on doing it yourself, should be straight forward enough

Look forward to seeing it ;)
