Crikey. Nothing gets past you guys

Firstly thanks for the replies.
So yellow westie. Yep, PM’d about that and waiting to hear back. But I did a MOT check on it whilst on the train. It’s a ‘00 plate with 30k+ on the clock - that’s more miles than I originally had in mind.
@Mark, yea funny you mentioned that bonnet, don’t like it either! So did some research into smaller ITB trumpets / horns to convert it back + new bonnet. My research suggested that longer horns / trumpets help with low down torque [is that true?] which got me thinking it might be a former hill climb / sprint car if you consider the cage and cut off switches etc. But as you say, it’s local so maybe worth a look.
@Tony B. Your mate’s Westie isn’t the bright green one that’s up on faceache at the mo? Looks race prepped?
My budgets are all over the shop in my head. Originally I was thinking up to £10k, based on a couple of Zetec R6s I saw on Tigers’ historic Faceache posts. Earlier this year they had a great looking orange R6 and stunning silver one - both were £9k. That said, I was prepared to go to £12k for something more ‘special’ based on another ad for a bright green Duratec R6 at £11k... and yes, I like R6s.
But then I did some research on what it means to convert to EFI throttle bodies etc because those zetec R6’s were carb’d - in short circa £4-5.5K parts, labour and mapped. That made me think that ITB cars under £14k might be worth considering - cheaper to buy than build. However that’s significantly more than my original budget and I don’t want to take the piss with my good lady.
Geeeez I dunno?!
