For some reason early SLCs are cheaper than you’d think,but they seem to rust out a lot more than equivalent age Mercs,that one looks as if if you move it the boot/rear quarters will twist when the paint gives into the rust underneath.
Good ones are nice and sound it with the V8

The reason it's 99p is it will be rotten and water logged and once it's reached silly money his cover will be well I started it at 99p

Old projects put me off as all the rust that has started can't be stopped so it needs chopped out and replaced
