It would be a great deal if it was painted correctly. By the time you repainted it not that great of deal.
 
Why do A's in light paint jobs look so weird? I guess we are so black/crimson/blue/green oriented. But then again, who but Edsel would have painted my Cabrio Yellow/Brown/Black with Orange pin stripes??
 
even if I could get past the unusual color choice,
the rusty water stains on top the engine would make me curious.
is water blowing out around a head stud?

maybe a so-so deal, maybe a money pit;
but clearly not what I'd call a "Great deal".

that first bid smells like a shill. :cool:
 
If you look at the bid information for the first bidder you'll see that he's currently bidding on 16 different items, all from different sellers, so it's hard to picture shill bids happening unless I'm missing something.

In the MG world that color combination is called "Cream Crackers" variant. If it had the moldings painted and a pinstripe that might be better. I'd paint the wheels dark first - get rid of the whitewalls, then do the moldings and then drive it. I've seen a lot worse colors.
 
The chocolate fenders and visor "bother" me more than anything else, but hey - it's only paint... not like it's been chopped / channeled / tubbed /subbed / 350'd / tucked / rolled / frenched / louvered / etc...

If the price is too high, it'll come down..
