Project Cars @ BHCC
Having studied the photo's I've got a good feeling about it. As it will be stored fairly local to me, so am looking forward to a closer look at it. I've got a spare engine if it does need it...but I recon the old one will be fine. Wink

Not many around anywhere at that price Matt! You did well.

By my rough calculations this is their 100th car, and a fitting BHCC standard too - photos aren't on the website yet, but a few are floating about.$14750 for a bag of parts without a useable frame

and 101:

much more atypical

Jeez that car needs some serious love to get her back to normal but I guess it would be an expensive restoration especially with it needing a new frame

hi all

i would still consider this as projects are getting fewer and fewer.

of course the frame must be real bad...then again if any D has a fair amount of frame rust then it would still need a new frame this bad or not.

i have messaged them for pics and also interior....i do wonder if this has been in a flood?.

unlike mk1 escorts and others, generally the panels will be okay and the resin body. if interior is not too bad then can be re-coloured etc.

we all know this D is going to be worth only a little under that in parts too...

to make it viable you would need to be patient and wait for 2nd hand parts...

i''ll let you know if i get any more info.

Regards

I think Steve's right, especially if you could get it for a bit less than advertised. It needs a full new frame clearly but IIRC D-Go sells them for 6-7k so long as it sustained no damage on it's way over the pond I think it's a reasonable project.

Even from the exterior photos I can see thousands worth of bits to replace, though? New fascias, radiator, louvres, right wing, left 3/4 panel is *torn* somehow... I think they'd have to come down a lot more than that, and they weren't super willing to negotiate when I spoke to them. That rusted automatic hasn't moved in 4 months but the price hasn't dropped.
