FE52GMF looking a little neglected.

Post by reggiebusa » Sun Mar 21, 2021 9:11 pm

Spotted this by the roadside while out for a run on my bike this morning. It is in Aughnacloy which is on the Northern/Southern Ireland border. It looks all there and needs saved. Somebody had a left a note under the wiper looking to buy it.

Good luck with getting this car, it looks a nice example to save. Interior looks nice.

The car has not had an MOT since 2018 and looking at the history it had a pretty chequered past. You can check here:

Its certainly worth a look though. Keep us posted!!

Interesting find Reggie. This is B3 3.3 #579 which has quite a backstory. It was auctioned in Sep-18 at Brightwells and prior to that it had lost it's original engine. Still, as an LCI 3.3 in Individual paint and with Nappa leather, it's a nice spec.
