There's one on the the Scrapyard Find Facebook group for just 900 quid. It needs a battery, fuel pump and inner sills but looks smart otherwise. It's a white 1974 model. I can post pics if interested.

^^^ That link is simply a suggestion to join fa*ebo*k, nothing about the cars that the o/p mentioned.

Hence why I didn't link it, as I know a lot of people here aren't on it

Here you go GHT - that would tidy up a treat for your better half and you would still be in pocket with it

Run your eye over the driver's door in the first two photos. Is that hinge drop caused by rust or a poorly repaired shunt?

I would say that is wear in the hinge pin / hinge box causing the door to fit poorly - from what I can see it looks like a fairly unmolested / original & complete car which is the best starting base by far - true due to the age / mileage of the vehicle things will be worn and require repair / replacement but only to be expected in a motor that is heading for 45 years old - given what a well restored one can fetch I would be having a go at this but I have too many other things happening over the next few weeks that I need to concentrate upon
