Just to let the people know who have been advising me and helping me with my search for a Greyhound, I have not bought the one in Sussex, although a nice car  it was not the one for me.
   So if anyone does hear of one coming up for sale please pass on my information.
   Thanks

The greyhound in Texas now has no reserve! And I think I am correct in saying it is the same one that sold at silverstone  auction about 10 weeks ago for about 40K

It is the same one that was at the Silverstone Classic Auction, as previously mentioned HERE.
   Ian, you have a P.m. [:)]

I note that in the description of the Texas car, the chassis is described as  " Same Chassis and Platform as AC Shelby Cobra",  .............

I have viewed this car, it is not in Texas but in Northampton, I would recommend anyone thinking of bidding on this car to have a look.

   Catapult? I`d say that someone attached a bloody great rocket to it! I think I`d be quite chuffed with a 70% mark-up in 3 months!!![:0][:0]

Any Joy with your car search yet, Ian?
   
   That blue modified LHD V8 Greyhound keeps not selling on eBay, only bid to $18k last time... you`d think they would get the message that it`s overpriced by now, wouldn`t you...that said, it has dropped $20k on their website!
   
   I know there aren`t many Greyhounds out there, Can anyone PLEASE help this chap?

Hi Nik,
   No luck yet, looks like it is going to be a long time until I find one, I am so desperate to get one I but I am looking for a car to keep for a long time so  I guess I will have to be patient!

Once again, the LHD didn't sell on eBay - max bid $35k... half of the asking price. Tough sell with all these modifications... even the axle was swapped.

Hi Ian.
   Being as interest in Greyhounds has been stirred a little with the Classic & Sportscar feature, I was wondering if you are having any joy in your quest for one?
