Bearing in mind the shitty paint and needing roof replacement/repair
work.

Something as a second/weekender, not a heavy hammered daily.

Probably left it too late because of the usual "Great for roof down
summer fun" season.

It looks pretty tidy, if the rear inner arches and sills aren't crusty
its a goodun. The flaky paint is weird, but it can't be worth much less
than it's up for. Offer �750 or 800. (c;

A roof job round these parts is about �500. Dunno what a spray job
costs, if the body is solid you'd have a nice car after that.

However you might be able to buy one with unfucked paint/roof for what
you'd spend fixing it up?

Yeah, figured.
Would have to get it sprayed anyway.
Can't see me in a white car. Only cars worth having in white are bases
for rally or police reps.
