What a payday...
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/11396783/Treasure-trove-of-classic-cars-sells-for-20-million.html
I presume most knew about this, but a bloody 250 in the midst of that lot. Madness. Little wonder it accounted for the lion's share of the profit after sale.
If it was me, I doubt if I could have parted with it. Especially if it was my Grandfather's car.
Jammy little beggars, either way.

Would have Parted without a second thought for that money. Great find, and gives others the chance to enjoy them, rather than just sitting there.

It wouldn't be sitting there if it were mine.
I'd sell the rest and run the 250.

Piece of cake Tom. Running repairs. Did my apprenticeship working on stuff like that.
Obviously it wouldn't be a lot of good as a wet weather car or a shopping car.
I'd deffo leave it in that nick visually though.
