This should be of interest......and a B10 thrown

Interesting that a price is quoted. But what exactly does one get for the money? It looks to me as if all sorts of bits and pieces are missing.
The Series 1 B20GTs are lovely to drive when sorted - a really good tactile package of a car with everything 'in balance'. Light steering, smooth engine, good brakes and sufficient performance.
I know everyone says the Series 3 (and 4) are the ones to have but I am not so sure.

It is a bit odd, seems well stripped out, plus for this sort of rare beast, having the original engine/major components ( how many of them one offs?) would be more important?

What we're seeing is "parts cars" becoming viable restorations.

I'm not sure what they mean by 'oldest car' as this is certainly not the earliest S1 B20 to survive.
