Noo I don't, well I do but it's further down my list! This RRC was just lovely and full of character. Got to £8,900 but didn't reach its reserve.

Thought I might have struck gold when a friend on holiday found this in the barn, but not for sale. Apparently, number 4 off the production line?!

Quite a nice find but looking at the rear cross member back body, tailgate and the bulkhead it looks later and #4 is out in Oz AFAIK.

Interesting, do you think I should tell them?
 They've had it since 1976!
What do we think of this? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/323289599166?ss...rmvSB=true I like what he's done to the dash.

All barn finds are "number 4 off the production line"
If you are really asking what I think of the blue thing, I think horrible. But others will like it..... 
If you are spending hard-earned cash on a Series, go for as original as possible (certainly as original looking as possible). When you come to sell it you will have more potential buyers and an easier sale. |

The blue thing has potential. Sliders off, lightbar off... Start from there.

I think Minervas are still good value. I was never that keen on the steel body but they have grown on me over the years possibly something to do with the fact that a 1952/3 80in Land Rover is probably around three or four times the price of a similar year / condition Minerva. If I was looking for a soft top and had a budget of £5-7K then a Minerva would be high on my list. |

I Think that belongs to Peter Wales aka LuLu? Like you say, quite a good buy for the money, and probably sourced by the Houbens, so should be a good one  80" 80" 86" 88" 90"
Wanted, Forward Control Anything considered. |

I agree they are still relatively affordable, different and useable. Getting an original base vehicle is the best option I think and a Minerva would fit that bill. 2010 XS USW
