SUMMARY

A Saintly proposition, a partially completed project in need of fresh impetus. To be sold with 'No Reserve'.

DESCRIPTION

  • For those of us with a memory long enough to remember The Saint,  the P1800 remains a cherished car in our history
  • This car, acquired by our vendor around seven years ago, has unfortunately beaten him
  • Storage issues and time availability mean that this partially finished project now comes to the market ready for somebody else to write its next chapter
  • The engine and gearbox are out of the car and an amount of work to the bodyshell has been carried out already
  • This appears to be a solid proposition but we would suggest interested parties view the car themselves and form an opinion as to how much work remains
