Wow. Can I lowball you a little bit? I've been looking for a new winter beater but this is a bit out of my price range.

Seriously tho, maybe a museum would want it? I dont really know how rare this car is...

Call up Jay Leno!

Renoyld Museum in Westaskawin has some classics, they could be interested in another. Who knows!

This is very cool. Hopefully it goes to a collector. You know there is a old school British Car society in Edmonton, they could probably help you out a bit.

Depending on the coachwork of this car that is quite a decent price.I have seen these things selling for 30 000pounds across the pond.Goodluck with the sale.I hope she goes to a good home.

you can work it on ebay where it costs nothing till the car sells. and who knows you may get alot more then the asking price there as well. Find out the guys low mark and put the starting bid at that.

Definate cool car wish I had the cash to do it up

You know, I don't. I wish I could remember.

THey have an annual meet at like Fort Edmonton, mutarts, etc.... some pretty cool cars: old school Rolls & Bentley, Aston Martin, MG, Mini, etc....

I'm not sure how you'd go about contacting them.... perhaps call up Anglo Canadian (Jag dealer) and tell them you're looking for an automotive group for classic british cars?!
