1955 Reliant Regal Aluminium convertible, VERY rare. No idea of value. OFFERS

Offers??? A very rare 1955 Reliant Regal convertible, aluminium on an ash frame. All the Reliants of this vintage were convertibles, though some later had a roof added. There is one in the Beaulieu Motor Museum and I have seen one running on Youtube that fetched 12000 at auction. Dad used to sell Reliants from his garage and bought this as a memento when the factory closed. It had an MOT and was running until he died and I inherited it. I no longer have any dry storage to keep it and I don't want it to have another winter protected only by tarpaulins. It would probably run if I sorted out the engine and bought a battery but it really want a proper overhaul before I try to start it and perhaps damage the engine. I have fitted it with new tyres so it could be towed onto a flatbed truck for transport. I have no idea of the value but I see Bond Bugs, of which there are loads, for £8000 but OFFERS are of course welcome. I have kept the hood and side screens in the house. They would be very useful as templates for new ones. I also have the moulded engine cover in safe storage. try{(function() {if (typeof(lpcurruser) == 'undefined') lpcurruser = ''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt') && document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value != '') { lpcurruser = document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurruserelt').value = ''; } if (typeof(lpcurrpass) == 'undefined') lpcurrpass=''; if (document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt') && document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value != '') { lpcurrpass = document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value; document.getElementById('lpcurrpasselt').value = ''; } var lploc=1;var lponlyfill=1;(function() {
