He seems to have some paperwork relating to the chassis number and year. And as for an mot, it doesn't need one as its a 1950, I didn't have to submit one for mine.

Fair enough, but with the amount of scammers on ebay these days you can't blame me for getting a bit twitchy.
I'd actually really like it but it's just not quite the right time.
Anyone got any picture of a fully restored one? It looks so austere compared to other Tempo's, did it have a badge or anything on the front?
