1953 Unfinished project for restoration For Sale

This is my late dad's 1953 James for sale for restoration. Unfortunately I have neither the skill nor time to do it myself. Hoping someone can bring it back to life.

It's not been started up and I'm no mechanic so can't answer any technical questions. There's a box of bits and bobs that are sold with it, no idea what they all are.

Open to offers.

EDIT: It's not been run in a long time, but has been moved over the past couple of years so assume it's still mobile. It was first registered in June 1953 and is 197cc (as per gov. uk tax/ MOT database). I need to locate the logbook (pretty confident we have it).
