Default Full stripped 1965 P1800 everything must go

Good morning all

Last year I acquired a 1965 P1800s, at the time it was running and it drove but needed lots and lots doing to it.

Over the course of 3 months I fully stripped it and eventually had the shell dipped so all the paint and rust was removed.

It needed lots and lots of welding (one thing I am definitely no good at) but I have just not had any time since then with work and other projects.

I think it will be a few years till I get round to it and it is now just taking up room.

So, with reluctance, I am going to sell it all.

I am thinking I will sell it all as individual parts however before I list things individually on eBay and on here if anyone might be interested in either the project as a whole or some of the big ticket items, body, engine etc etc then feel free to comment or PM me.

Will post some pictures later.

Cheers
Jon

update - I can't reply to private messages (apparently you need to have posted 30 times to be able to reply !) so if you PM me include your number so I can message you

It would be a shame to lose another one..and a major pita for you to sell each part seperately. I would sell the whole lot together..someone will have it..loads less stress for you, one more car saved. I'd buy it, but I like my wife.

All

Please see earlier post, I have now decided (unless someone offers me a decent amount in the next few days) to split this up.

Private message me with what parts you might be interested in (and roughly what you might offer for them, subject to condition of course) and I will come back to you as soon as.

Please include your phone number or email address in the message.

I feel compelled to point out that the P1800 is always going to be more valuable than an Amazon (in same condition)...

2 things to point out:

1) For those who have private messaged me without including contact details please re-message as it doesn't let me reply to messages

2) Just to point out that the shell needs a ton of welding (a good few hundred hours worth)

Note the shell is on eBay as well to see what offers I get.
