Subject: Re: 1951 2.6 litre dhc for sale - Deliberate Vandalism
The dhc has now been purchased by a car wheeler/dealer, so still at risk.
He wants 10k for the dhc, purchased a few weeks ago.
The saloon does not belong to him, it belongs to a friend of his, who has had it for 15 years and done nothing with it. The saloon is a rare complete car, very unsual to find today like that.
I recommended that he puts the saloon into H&H auctions where it could well net 7-9k for it as a complete car, and then someone who genuinely loves the car, will restore it. The last one in similar condition sold for 8.8k, a few months ago.
imho I don't think this person will do anything with either car. The dhc is not a simple engine/gearbox / instruments replacement. Having seen the car, it was a great deal more work than that.
But at 20k, they won't get any takers, more likely 12.5-13 k will be the top price, and most of that skewed to the complete saloon...
Lets hope that these two fine cars find some suitable homes for them.
