As low as you can get it for, but if it's relatively original, and in not too bad condition, it's worth over £500 as a car to break.

if it has been sitting for years I would try and turn it over by hand 1st to see if anything have siezed as it could be more money in the end then buying an engine for a little bit more

i would but he has took the engine out of the car and in his garage so cant test it or anything.plus i am going to take the red carpet and all the trim and front seats.the shell has a good bit of rust on it from what i have seen.but i think he would give the car away to someone if they wanted to pick it up maybe a project or sumthing.its a tungy also :P

right guys went to see the engine tonight it turns fine BY HAND he wants £300 for it tho which i think its not worth u can tell its been lying for a while the rocker cover is pritty rusty and could do with a good clean said he spent £500 on it before he left it.said he got new head gasket fitted with bolts and piston rings and pistons and head been skimmed and pressuerd.so anyway ended up buying the front seats which are vgc all the int trim and carpet for £50 and the front bumper for £10:laugh:
