They're going to restore it someday. See if they want to sell it, and if they don't, see if they'd like a hand restoring it. It might be that they started to restore it, hit a snag that they didn't know how to overcome, and that's where it stopped. They might just need a fresh pair of eyes to look at it, and a fresh pair of hands to get the ball rolling again.

It's been on the rear jacks since at least 2010 & windows been out since at least 2015... (I'm not local but its very easy to find on google maps  ) Looking at the house, the reason it's sat for so long is either old age or illness. |

Looking at the house, the reason it's sat for so long is either old age or illness. Either that or, to them, is just another thing. I've met people who live in run down houses and own cars that many here would consider desirable but to the owners, are just old cars and are there to be used, like a fridge. When they stop working, they just discard it. To most people, cars are just that, disposable. |

Was a nice yellow TVR on the drive as well. |

Yeah, I know this scene well. There’s a guy near me with a pair of Marcos’s in the front garden. Went up on stands in about 2012 and they’ve been like that ever since. Looking decidedly worse for wear now  |

There's an old guy up the road from me with an 86 Manta Berlinetta in the drive, it's been there as long as I can remember.
