Will keep my fingers crossed for the poor soul who bought it. Very unusual that something supposedly worth several thou gets flogged off for 500. I can smell it all the way from here. Still if it was a real -mechanic- with time and facilities..., that bought it, maybe worth a shot. 500 in parts (also again if you have the time

)

Perhaps for all the sick and unwanted 75's and ZT's out there we should set up a sanctuary, well it works for donkeys.......

I know of a near empty Mountain nearby that could take a few.

By the time you have swapped the CDT engines over and done all the usual stuff, "O" rings, fans, pumps, etc the car will have cost around £1.700 .. Add £500 for the body work, we are at £2.300.. And you would have a very very nice car..

But if you can do most of the work yourself then it would indeed be a real bargain..

Personally I think it's well worth saving..

Just a shame it's green innit..
