    On the hunt for a Mk1 Swallowtail. PLEASE HELP!

    To all you mk1 lovers out there.

    I have started this thread in an attempt to find a mk1 swallowtail. I have been searching high and low on carsales, gumtree, ebay and the forums and have had no luck for the past 6 months.

    I am looking to start a project build much like many of you have already done.

    If anyone here knows of a swallowtail for sale or notices one up for sale on the net please let me know.

    Many thanks

    Mick

    6 months, is that all?

    I've been looking (on and off) for about 3 years. Just gotta keep your eyes peeled. Putting the word out (such as this) can only help though! Good luck.

    That looks pretty decent.. except the cracked dash. Good price too (doubt it will stay that low!)
