While many purists would have us tared and feathered for what
we think & do to ‘their’ cars I don’t think twice about it.
That being said I would not have posted this if it had the common VW engine.

I know that engine well!
For about half that price, Id almost be tempted.
I would be tempted at a price between asking and 1/2 asking. Not goin to happen, Though. it would be a ball to get there and drive it home!!! alas, I can not fly. I opted not to mess with proof that I am a citizen… I am!!!
Should not irritate Jaguar purists. It only resembles one.
Decades ago, I saw a real on in a small German town. Very nice one. Alas, a rod cap in the front seat. discouraged…
A Datsun 6 would be better. Better yet. V8 and T5…
