 what ever

I'm shocked your car hasn't sold yet!

3.5k is a good price for the amount of work you've put into it!

Good to see the 500 is coming on too, shame about the seat runners.. I'm worrying about the same thing

How long till you've finished the 500?

people buy cheap cars then spend a fortune on them ,ends up costing 4  5  times what they thought ,
mine sounds dear but look at the lever of work ,

Yeah, I was talking to Pete at our last meet, we were saying that your car is a good price for all the work done. I am spending more on a restoration at the moment..

If I hadn't started it then I would have considered it but I'm trying to sell cars, not buy them!
