There are a few trashed and smashed 120's in the scrap / breaker yards, looks like they have sold all the easy stuff, and left with the bulky engine.
I would say with 55k, on the clock, it is probably all original.

Yes, I got it,
with 220k, on my one, it seemed for 200 pound well worth it. Smile

You are kidding. £201 for that. It's a bargain. And incredibly, it's in my home town!! Vette if you need any local knowledge or anything, mail me. Can't say I can store it for you, but I have a trailer etc and you never know, I may be able to help you out in some way.

Damn, £200! Wonder if it would fit in mine!

Go on, do a quick swap. He'll never know. If it is junked it's still worth £200 in parts alone.
