Blimey they only found it 3 weeks ago in a shed , seems a very short time to restore it .

The new trend in "restoring" is to simply make sure it works. Collectors now value as much as the original vintage look as possible. This will likely fetch over 10mil.

Paintwork is likely in poor quality is as well, would be sacrilege to spray a car like this.

Im not an expert but I have spent more then half my life in the auto industry. Does anyone know at what point you have to restore a car before it goes to dust? This one appears to be walking a fine line between vintage and needs to be restored. There's alot of rust and the interior looks horrible. 100 years from now there will be nothing left of this thing.
