This is a project. A big time project. The car looks to be relatively complete. It has been set up to take a Corolla engine and transmission, as, according to the seller, "it is almost impossible to get an original engine".
If you're brave enough to take it on, this would be a really cool car once it's restored.
The seller doesn't state in his ad how much he wants for the car, but on a Toyota forum $3500.00 is mentioned.

1965 Riley Elf - A Mini with a trunk and a formal grille. Personally, I can't decide whether or not I like the trunk, but I love the nose.This car needs some restoration, but the seller says "you can drive it home and drive while you finish it".
A great car if you want a Mini, but want to stand out in a crowd.

1973 Triumph Dolomite Sprint Race Car - On the short list of cars I'd like to own one day is the Triumph Dolomite Sprint. It was never sent to the US and LHD cars are few and far between. This is a RHD Dolly that has been set up for racing. According the seller, it is the only Dolomite Sprint racing in the United States.
I want one I can drive on the street, but if you're looking for a really cool, unique race car, this may be the car for you.

The seller of the Dolomite is also selling a 1968 Ford Cortina MKII with a Cosworth 2.8 V-6 in it. It's also set up for racing. See the eBay listing here.
1977 Ford Granada - This car has claimed 7000 miles on it. That's an average of 205 miles per year... 17 miles per month... A half a mile a day. With a 6 cylinder engine, automatic transmission, vinyl bench seat, AM radio and no air conditioning, it's pretty easy to see why the miles are so low. The question is, why did the owner (it's a 1 owner car) keep it for so long?
Believe it or not, Ford tried to compare these cars to the Mercedes-Benz 450SLC.
