This popped up on my watched items.

Too much of a project for me, and it appears the seller, anyone on here fancy a bite!

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/303702147267?
£475.00 1 bid, all to play for!

Hensen M30 kit car, correctly registered Jan 1984 on a Q plate, these cars where based on the MK1 Ford Granada for the suspension, engine and gearbox etc, this car is a restoration project it’s missing its engine, automatic gearbox, side and rear glass, seats etc, it’s fitted with some wheels for the purpose of moving the vehicle only, I recently purchased the car but it’s to big a project for me, the V5 will need to be applied for, the first 6 pictures are of the car in its current condition the last few show what these cars look like, the car comes with a front windscreen.

There was a nice sliver one on ebay about a year ago which was quite tempting.

Somewhat quirky 80's styling but still enticing. Probably a good thing I already have too many projects or I could be taking on another money pit here.

All of that! Missed silver one.

I disagree with the description of the styling as "quirky". I think the Hensen had well-resolved styling. Perhaps too aggressive and brutal for many people, but not quirky.

Quirky or Brutal, it is still gloriously 70/80s in it's appearance. There was a Nova out there for sale as well a few weeks ago.

BTW, a quick Google shows only 17 Henson M30 kits left the factory.

Very much of its time. But even then you'd have to say that the nose was not its best feature. frown

The nose made it look like a shark. What more could you want?

I actually really like the front end, there is a tidy one in white on google images which looks boss, the red one a little less at home with it, and then the metallic grey one which has been modified to remove the number plate section which again looks great and has a bit of a dodge charger air to it. Might work in red too.
