iv been offered one of these for £250 as its been sat in a corner near a mates unit or some time.

it seems to be all there but i havent really looked.

i expecting it to be a bit of a basket case and beyond saving,
but im always willing to look and do think most things are fixable (even when there not worth it, curse of a vintage car guy - repair everything!)

thoughts?
are these worth restoring?
do they have any real value?
anything to watch out for?
are parts still easily found?
