Elf on EBay. Anyone Know It?

Does anyone know this car? There is someone in my area of the U.S. who is interested. I don't buy off eBay and don't buy cars I can't inspect, but if anyone knows the car, I'd be happy to pass on informaiton to him. Post here or email me directly. cheleker at aol dot com
Thanks

Which one, Chuck?

Did the "cut." Forgot the "paste."

Thanks.

If you can findout where it is in the UK may be someone could go and look at it?

I have been lusting after that one myself, it's such a beautiful colour.

But just for the record if anyone wants cars in Ireland looking at, ever, I am happy to go along for you and take a look and some video clips. I did that once for an EHR member already.

(It's tremendous fun!

Thanks for the on- and off-line comments. I think the potential bidder has enough information to make a decision.

Bit late in the day but I know the car.

I've done work for the guy that was selling it.

It was bought from Norwich area for £1800 a few weeks ago, Had a cheap (dirt cheap) paint job and was listed on eBay for twice the price (nice mark up if you can get it).

It was NEVER worth the asking price and has now been swapped for a MGB which was sold for over twice what he paid for it. Currently it's having a wheel bearing (front drivers side) changed and a Steering rack swapped.

I wouldn't buy of the seller as the cars are just not as nice as he thinks they are. (long story and I'll pm details on request)

Thanks for sharing!
