1800? Is it nice? Hopefully more likely to become a beavertail at that money. I hope.

don't really agree with bangering classics but they do put a lot of effort into their cars.looks too nice to race, Its a pity I didn't get a photo from the front, it looked great. The owner had put in a mega effort, it came off the boat 3 months ago with 2 others imported just to be raced, apparently they are banned from American Demolition Derbys as they are too hard so they are a bit unwanted over there....I had a good nosey around this one - I expected it to be a '20 yard' car i.e it looks ok from that distance but even close up it was solid and on a bloody great chassis, I wouldn't have wanted to be on the receiving end of a shove from it....I think there have only ever been a few raced in this country - the last one I heard of had done 3 meetings and would probably race again. To be honest I've previously thought the same as you but after finding out my old Holden wagon got stripped and fragged with most of the bits still on it by the next owner I would much rather it had gone out in a blaze of glory, all the good bits could still have gone on to keep others on the road.....
