I saw one in a magzine ( cant remember which one) where a reader had found one exactly like that in his grand-dads garden . He cleaned it up and repainted it & sent the pics to the magazine.

Default Ebay Scammer

Found another scam artist on Ebay by the name of HADDADHSV. He's using shill bidding to inflate his prices, then retracting the bid on the item once he knows the highest legitimate bid. Nothing new there but I thought I'd warn you all :

Just had a report back from Ebay, they've 'taken action' against him. That just means he'll start a new account and do it again. However, here's the funny part. The bonnet sold for $41. I received the invoice yesterday, he's added another $50 for postage even though it's a pick up only item, and then another $41 for no other reason that I can see, other than the fact that he's a complete d1ckhead :

Mate, I've looked at it too. For memory the bumper bolt holes had been ripped open. Wanting 6G for it. More like 1G total. I think he's trying to get rich quick

I like the look of this one. Maybe it's the deep dish hotwires that does it.
