Ebay item 9/15/04 cgi.ebay.com/ws/ebayISAPI.dll
Opening bid GBP 37,500, no bids yet, 3 days left in auction.
There are some observations/ concerns about this car as follows:
The serial number matches a left hand drive 2+2 circa 1971.
The engine [#7S11629A] is '73 or later with a five digit serial number. The coil on the right rear plus the location of the oil pressure sending unit, is consistent with a '73 motor.
The fresh air vents - may not have they existed in '71.
The demister vents may not be correct for a '71.
This car appears to have been modified to a RHD roadster and from auto trans to manual, perhaps using some '73 parts though this is only conjecture.

This is one really cobbled car. It started life as a 71 LHD 2+2. And still is in my opinion. Changed to RH. Changed to manual as the BW indicates automatic transmission. Placement of coil to rear must be a RH domestic (England) engine and it appears to be of the mid 73 vintage by the numbers. A;so, it would have four digits instead of five as the last # is actually an "S" . Hope no one pays the price for this one.
