found this video of an H120 for sale - as seen by Rapierdave in Bristol a while back.

It used to belong to Muriel Lindo at which time it was featured in Practical Classics up against a red mk2 lotus cortina.

it's up for £1500 and requires welding underneath.( i have no connection with the seller)

Looks like an OK basis for a rolling resto...at £1500 may be good ( might be worth popping a cheeky offer in)

yes - a bit of a hike in price and also has fibreglass wings if i recall correctly
Not many early H120's around though and does have a current MOT.

As its local to me i'll see if i can pop round to view it.
When i briefly saw the car around Xmas last year i was surprised someone was using it with all the salt on the roads.
It had silver painted sills i think instead of the covers and some rust around the offside rear arch.
If some one paid around £2500 for the car then was prepared to spend up to another £2000 on bodywork they could have a very nice tax excempt H120.
If i remember correctly it sold for around £2750 about 2 years ago.

Values of classic cars in the current economic climate is difficult to predict but it's an H120 so good luck to the seller



Coupes are cool

Thanks Dave,

Would be interesting to see what it is like in the flesh. Even with my "good! rapier there were a fair few sins once we got the paint off, although some were quite amusing ( piece of wood holding headlights in!)

Although if the timing is right I could drag mine out of the workshop as this goes in; that would buy me 6 months!

Have a great day

Paul
