Anyone looking for an early 145 to restore?

I have a 1970 model looking for a loving new home. Details here :

Thats pretty much exactly what I am after. Unfortunately you couldn't be much further away from me, Glasgow!

Been looking for an earlier 145 in that sort of condition and colour for a while. Just a case of transport as assuming its far beyond driving itself 450 miles!

Its not road legal for sure as it has no brakes! Drives fine though if you don't plan on stopping at all!!

Seriously though, if you put the details of it into the Shiply website at

https://www.shiply.com/

then people will bid you for the work and if you wait a few days the price comes in pretty cheap especially if you get someone who is already doing the journey the other way and is looking for a return load to help with fuel costs.

As an example I got my camper van bought down from Mid Wales to Dorset for £95. Bargain I thought!

I'll see what I can sort out. Keen for sure, though won't be able to see it in the flesh, not due that end of the county this year now either. If I can get transport for a reasonable rate, if not I'll keep rummaging in Scotland, just know there has got to be one lurking round the back of an old garage somewhere
