Whats this worth guys or would anyone be interested in buying this? i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb457/simonjones1/20130204_115619_zps2d2456a9.jpg[/IMGI no very little about this car but if anyone wants to no more I'm sure all it would take was me to make him a cuppa and get him chatting to find out all the needed info I do no it has a 2.0 pinto which needs a fuel pump, it ran and drove 3months ago befpr this was removed need a seil replaced which is inside the car ready to go on and a few other little bits of welding also. It was last on the road in 03 (last tax disc in window)and is a fibreglass body on cortina chassis. It had a full custon cream leather interior made which is in good condition just needs a good clean!

A neighbour of mine used to have one of these...... I often tried to not crash while it captured my bemused stares.
Possibly gone full circle through being SO hideous, that it's become quite interesting for its kitsch value.

I hate to say it, but unless road going (i.e. taxed and MOT'd) and in very good condition with nice paint, nice wheels, well finished interior etc..., then they are generally only worth the base value of the Cortina parts. The market for these is very, very limited and as such, only really good examples will fetch any kind of money. It's something that might appeal as a kind of 'curiosity' to someone looking for a project, but they most probably won't be willing to spend an awful lot if it's going to be a big jump into the unknown...and sadly, a lot of self builds like this really are a gamble because you simply never know how well they've been put together by the original builder and what horrors may lurk beneath. You may end up with one build with love, care and affection. Or you may end up with a snotter than was nailed together on the cheap and is literally held together with dirt and a large dose of luck. At a guess you'll be looking at a figure similar to the one in Panda Selecta's ebay link. I'd like to say more, but unfortunately, that's not always the way the used kit car market works It certainly has the potential to be a very cool looking (as Ade says, kitcsh) vehicle.

I'd love something like that to make a small camper. Whereabouts in the world is it?

I believe Nitro lives in Hertfordshire somewhere? Although that's not really too helpful because Herts is quite big! Plus the Sherwood isn't his, so could be further afield.
[edit]Not that I'm stalking him or anything, but it would seem that Nitro lives in Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire[/edit]

My father in law got this in a will from his best friend who got the kit and he spent a pretty penny on all custom leather interior and alot of time doing the work between them. If anyone is seriously interested i can take a drive and get more detailed piks of the whole car or make an offer from what you have seen and il pass it on. Ino he needs a mk1/2 escort rear diff/axle for his rickman so will more than likely do a deal.
