Barn find

[RS2000TYNE]

Found this in the depths of Northumberland!
Checked DVLA & not been on the road since 1991! Has correct cc engine & first registered 01/02/1977 so an early broadstripe car. Correct colour green. Can it be saved?

Anything can be saved!

If I knew where it were, I would be concentrating on owning it and getting it safely into my garage, before I even considered its future

[Quickrack-Alan]

Get it home. STAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And good luck.

I'd be emptying the piggy bank if I knew where it was. Good luck in getting it.

[HarrierTony]

Great find, I too would be looking for a way to own it

[mark2marty]

get the car home so you can decide whether to restore yourself, if its too big a job you can sell it on

I think when something goes wrong with these cars or they fail the MOT, then the owners put them aside with good intentions of doing them up at a later date, but they don't ever get around to it! They buy another car, then the old one just ends up forgotten about, and slowly it deteriorates.

A mate of mine had 2 traction engines out in the open on his farm for years and years. When I questioned him about them, he said he was going to do them up, but I don't think he ever did!

Did you buy this car in the end ?

Would be good to see more pics of this as the long distance shot is a little pixelated . Any under bonnet shots ?

Looks like a Cumbria registered car being AO
