Good afternoon everyone :) . I spoke to a nice chap from Teeside today who was replying to a wanted post of mine on the P6ROC website. Anyway, it transpires he has for sale a 1 owner from new, garaged all it's life 1969 3500 auto in what I think is Arden green? It has done less than 70,000 miles from new and appears to have been well cared for. It does however have some damage to the front offside wing but that shouldn't be too hard to fettle. The fella is only asking £1200 for it, which seems like a great buy to me. He wants a quick sale as it is pretty much a liability to him. Sadly, it was left to him and his wife by her father who died in 2009. It seems the old Fella really cherished the car and it has the m.o.t's to prove this. The last m.o.t was in 2009 before he passed away.

After talking to the seller it seemed only right that it should go to someone else who could now care for the car, so I wanted to post the details on here in the hope someone will buy?? After looking at the photos he sent me I can't believe he was thinking of scrapping the car! :(

P.s There's also a load of spares he wants rid of. Also, he does not have a contact number as he works offshore but has forwarded an email address. He said for interested parties to contact him via email then he would ring them. I will post the info and photos soon (I know how much you like pics! :LOL: ) after I have downloaded and arranged them.

Gareth, I would love a series 1 V8 but like you have nowhere to keep the car. I've got enough on my hands with the one I have anyway :LOL: , plus mine has long been part of the family so can't get rid!

Good luck Bri. If I had a garage I would've had it myself. If you get it can I come and have a look at it? :D
 
That looks interesting...keep me in the loop Bri!

May be more to it than meets the eye though, the number plates are new.

Bri, if you do end up buying the car and changing the panels over I would be interested in buying the ones you remove if they're still pretty solid :D
 
well,i have spoke to the guy and seems a nice chap,he says the car drives and stops but is not mechanical or bodily minded,so to cut a long story short, i am goin to see this car,i have to wait untill he comes back off the rigs but we have made a date and will let you all know whats its like,hopefully it mite be in my garage ha :D
 
well what can i say,i was supposed to be going down last sunday to have a look at the car but the guy rang me and said he had it advertised aswell and that somebody beat me to it,but not all is lost i have been informed of 2 series 1 v8s and im just waiting for more information,one is supposed to be really really low mileage,lets wait and see :D :wink:
