Midas Gold convertible

Gauging interest here, I have a Yellow Midas gold convertible with a 1.1 K series engine (no body modification to fit it) that i'm looking to put up for sale.
Shes been off the road for a few years due to lack of funds and frankly I don't think I can do her justice in the near future so while i'm in no hurry; I am resigned to letting her go.

Was originally taken off the road for a failed mot for:

-Offside front constant velocity joint gaiter insecurely mounted
-Nearside inner upper suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated resulting in excessive movement.
-Offside inner lower suspension arm locating pin insecure

This is all fairly trivial,however i'm sure the years of inactivity have taken their toll as well so it'l need towing or more likely taking away on flatbed. On the upside It had a new front and rear subframe, fuel tank, carburetor, and battery fitted shortly before the mot failure.

If there is any interest i'd be happy to provide further details and images.

Where in the country is it and does the engine run? Any idea of a price?

Okay the engine runs after a jump start and will restart afterwards despite the battery being well and truly knackered. There's some slight knocking from one of the cylinders however the fuel is a little old which may explain it a little. The issue now is that I haven't the slightest idea for an asking price. I'l get some more recent and detailed pictures up tomorrow if the weather holds out.
