CONDITION
Lovely glossy paint all-round that is not perfect but has stood up really well, excellent chrome, good Michelin tyres all round, very nice interior with no wear to the seats or carpet and under the bonnet the engine bay presents superbly, as does the carpeted boot area and spare wheel with cover. No signs of rust, this car prehensively restored in the '00s and as such is a wonderful, usable car - not a show-winning car, but you'd be very happy to show it! Under the car is in amazing condition with no rust and lots of new parts on show. Owners manuals and many documents, a magazine feature, a Heritage Trust certificate and lots of MOT certificates.
