So whats it worth ?
I have now got the bug to my place and have given it a good look over.
Its very solid, and has never been welded so original floor pans. everything major is there.
Its comes with strangely 3 spare wheels (winter tyres for norway)
It rolls, steers, gears change, handbrake works and is in great nick for a 62 year old car.

Bad bits
There is a small 15 cm by 15 cm repair needed in the floor pan behind the passenger seat.
The wings have had some minor filler on the edges where I presume it has been bumped.
The Engine is not the original lump but is still (i think) a 1,1 that goes with the car. It has been upgraded over the years. Perhaps someone who knows can have a look at the pictures and engine number.
The doors are from a later model probably 53 onwards as they have the little side window,
The two bumpers are not the original ones and show signs of damage
Indicators have been put on the body work but some period side ones are with the car, but they are not the semiphore type.
Its been resprayed 40 years ago when it was a work car ( this I was shown by a friend who knows these things)

Otherwise this is an solid unrestored 51 split 69k kilometers on the clock.
