I mean, very nice, but a hell of a lot of work - the later pictures show the state of the bulkhead and given it is shot at the top and the bottom, realistically you would want to replace it. The really odd thing is that someone has clearly spent a lot of money on a new winch bumper and grill/headlight surrounds (or has done a very good job of refurbing them) when the basics are falling apart.

Agreed! Needs work. Someone happily (?) paid nearly £35K for it. Is that cheap for a CT 110 in that condition? Current vehicle: 2020 Defender 110S
Gone: Defender 90 HT 200Tdi, Discovery Sport, Freelander 2

Cheap no, reasonable probably, for a vehicle with provenance.

I suppose it depends on what you want to do with it. If you just want to own it and stick it on display somewhere as it is then other than re-assembling it you don't really have much more to spend. If you actually want to drive it I would suspect the chassis is probably as rotten as the bulkhead so realistically you are looking at a full rebuild onto new chassis and bulkhead, even if you do that yourself it is a big chunk of cash for the parts (£5k ish) and inevitably there will be other bits you find that need replacing. At the end of the process you would end up with a (mostly) genuine Camel Trophy vehicle, does that have a hugely inflated value nowadays? I really don't know, but I suspect you would be looking at the task with your heart not you financial head....
