Description
This car has had only two owners from new, the last which owned the car since it was five years old. Following the death of the owner we are now selling the car as in need of recommissioning/ light restoration. It has been off the road for a good two decades, but has been remarkably well preserved. The body is generally in good condition with only an area at the very bottom of the rear wing showing a small area of surface corrosion whilst there is some paint flaking at the based of the doors and the bonnet has an area where something has been stood on it which has impacted the paint. The paint in general however presents well and the car still has its original Cotswold Blue paint. The underneath of the car is very good and the interior is original and again in nice condition with no rips or tears in the leather. The headlining is also in good order. The dashboard also presents well with none of the usual cracking that is so common with these cars. The engine bay is clean as well. The car will need a thorough recommissioning. The engine starts and runs. This is going to be a rewarding project for its next owner as the main work required is the mechanical recommissioning of the car as the body and underneath is in generally very good order. With values of these cars rising strongly, there is plenty of room at the asking price to invest in this car and add value.
We have the original buff logbook. The car also comes with a full tool kit which is worth a small fortune on its own. The number plate has been valued at £2,000.
