I'd buy it if the price was sensible- but its not. I think he's added up what he's spent on it.... bet its a laugh though, proper chassis

Too fast, for such an old man.

He'd probably have to use the brakes. And we know he never does that.

Wont be that fast with a standard carbed Rover V8 in it, about 150 bhp, will be useful but not ballistic, plus will it suit the car, its all low down grunt and no top end on standard Rover V8's.
