£350 75 with lots of very nice bits - Page 2

I think regarding the wheels in the listing, he's just using the standard generated listing, as comets were standard fit on a Connoisseur at that time. A lot of people use these inaccurate descriptions. If he'd changed the wheels, I doubt he'd even have known what they were called.

Hopefully, those wheels are a strong selling point!

There are a lot of very nice bits on it. I've just not got the time to take it on, at the moment, alas!

I think this is the car that BigRuss went to look at about 8 weeks ago, and if so it is the one that he declared a shed and not worth bothering with except for bits/breaking. .

Engine is noisy because it's been run dry, evidence of Kseal in header tank.
Boot full of water, bonnet rusted through in 2 places, interior very grubby more lines in the ipk than Kings Cross

At that price not too bad considering the serpents, walnut wheel and gear knob and an original detatchable tow bar.
