Spotted by "friend" who has spoken to vendor who claims veehical kept in garage for 19 years and intention was to use it in hillclimbs, but owner's back problems forces sale.
Full alloy roll cage, adjustable LSD (?) rose jointed adjustable suspension, fuel cell, weber induction, claims it will spin to 8200 and clock 220kph. Engine # has prefix 12Y/ta/H. Probably has racing provenance. Originally white in colour.
Comments invited as to car's worth/asking price which I think is negotiable.

$6,500 !?!?!

If that's a genuine 'S', that is an unbelievable steal.

Fairly certain shell is genuine S, even though vendor has yr of manufacture (1968) wrong. Appears original engine long since gone.................
