Has anyone had a look at this?

Complete with all the correct bits and original chassis plate/rivets but looks like the sills and wing bottoms have been smoothed over with filler?
I think this car was recently for sale at a New York dealers for $6950!

This car has been in storage for many years in the US and has only recently come over to the UK so is not completely rusty, it is a great candidate for restoration and comes with various spares with the car in the boot.
Just a little bit rusty then...

I can confirm that the tyres, glass and interior are rust- free but not sure about the rest

Looks like a good candidate but is that price realistic? Tigermanny had something similar for considerably less and some Tigers in way better condition have sold recentley for just a couple of grand more.
Maybe Im undervalueing or are prices going up fast?

If this is the car I think it is the dealer has at least a £5k profit margin. Take that off and the price is much more realistic. Alas you cant expect the dealer to work for nowt

if the dealer takes his profit off then he wouldnt be a dealer .
