Price seems a bit steep to me, I'd be looking to knock the seller down to about five bags 'a' sand (best said in a Cockney car dealer accent).

I phoned but had no reply due possibly to the time difference (it's a California phone number). Have emailed stating I'll buy it for the advertised price. Can't wait for the reply
Am looking forward to my trip to collect it - anyone want any hot rod parts while I'm there. Or crate LSx motors.

That's a good suggestion. Still no response from the seller so I won't book the flight quite yet.
He should be getting up soon. Can't wait

A tad expensive, but they might take a lower offer.

WTF? Anyone know the back story?

I mean, I could understand it if it was a Tribute B*ntley and the chap with the hammer was in a Savile Row suit and waving a writ...

Looks like it was just the buck judging by the amount of filler and foam. No need for it any more.

I'm surprised they did that! I'd have thought it may have some use in the future if a mould was damaged for instance.

Looks like he had to remove the buck from the chassis so he could put a real body back on the chassis.
