Thanks for the quick replies!
I assume it's ment to have SU rather than Stromberg, thought Stromberg were on US cars? I've made it clear to the seller I won't be buying without a full MOT
So the "work" was both sills and rear 3/4s, plus a bit of paint tidy up, they do have a detailed invoice for it. I've got my magnet with me to check what is filler (or fibreglass/newspaper/sawdust) and what is metal. The areas I know to check are outriggers, sills, rear 3/4, floorplan, rear bulkhead. Anything major I've missed?!
I know the usual check for crank wear and knocking noises, what should pressure be? I have been told cold idle 40-50, cold rev 100, hot idle 20-30 and hot rev 50-70
I also *think* from the bay pic it might have been upgraded to electronic ignition as well.
Agree on the price, I am happy to travel the distance to view as it looks to be a genuine car that will require a little work to get it back to glory, but I would rather pay a little less than advertised. Of course if it's full of filler I'll be walking away!
