And I certainly wouldn't imagine that to be mint, not because of the mods, but because he started with what sounds like a beater, and did a nice job of rebuilding it, unfortunatley that doesn't make it any more valuable. Also, I notice he makes no mention of mileage in the auction. That suggests no real history, which will bring the price down. They don't fetch mega money here at the best of time. One of the UK Saabscene guys picked a T16, with new tyres, a fresh MOT, and new exhaust, just for a trackday, for £400. paint was rough, but the whole thing was solid, and it was very quick for a standard car. he sold it at a profit afterwards. -- Carl Robson "Sorry Sir the meatballs are orf" (The poster formerly known as Skodapilot) http://www.bouncing-czechs.com
