			If it's that exact car pictured I'd say yes. But to buy an unloved example and fix it up, I'd put my efforts elsewhere.

			That's a beautiful car. Hey if it makes you happy and you can afford it... Why not? Make the most of your life and a big part of that is being happy.

			Can't... quite... read... what's on the horn button. But those look like Smiths guages, so it's British made. So, no... you shouldn't.  +++Edit: I saved the photo and zoomed in... it's a Bristol. Still British.

			Why anyone ever posts here seeking advice on NOT buying some interesting car is beyond me.  We're addicts.  This is the LAST place to ask for an automotive reality check. That being said, Embraer: There's an old doctor in my office bldg with a brown Jensen. He gave me a thumbs up once when I was on my Duc and we were both leaving the parking garage. If I ever find out he's putting it up for sale, I'll think of you.
