Although this car looks lovely on the surface, I am not sure it works for me (diesel, no overdrive, and non sync gearbox), I wanted to get what your thoughts for future reference:

The lovely owner emailed me pictures of the renovation work... some of the welding looks a bit tatty..
Is that the sort of work to be expected when working on old steel? Or is it the “my friend billy knows a guy who can weld for a good price” sort of thing?
Would this sort of details make you run away?
Your opinion really helps me calibrate the cars I can eliminate from the get go and not waste anybody’s time and money.
Thank you
Strange colour, but it is an early car for sensible money, sounds like it has the original chassis? no heater, one wiper only, very nice.
I would buy that any day over any series 3.
Plus being an early s2 88 soft top, if you cant live with it, it will sell well, apart from the colour!
Did you notice it is a diesel?
EDIT, scrub that just noticed your pics, chassis no worries, but that bulkhead!
