Beschreibung
One of the late fifties fun sports cars, easy to drive and run. Spares are readily available from numerous sources in the uk and are not expensive. It needs nothing doing to it and is ready to go.
history.
the car was totally rebuilt from the ground up, the old paint removed and a total respray carried out in the early eighties. All the running gear was replaced where necessary, engine reconditioned and a new gearbox and disc brakes fitted. The hood, tonneau cover and interior carpets replaced. The side screens are in their plastic storage bag, the jack, tools and side screens also have their original plastic storage bags. I acquired the car in september 1991 and have done all the servicing myself. The current milage reading is 73012. the speedometer is the original so, since the restoration, i would estimate the milage to be, on average, about three hundred per year making a total of approximately 12500 to date. All the gauges are original and functioning, there is no visible rust and the car has been kept in a garage for all the time the previous owner and myself have owned it.
work since i have been the owner.
because of the low usage some of the parts deteriorated so i have replaced the following. Front calipers and pads, master cylinder, rear wheel bearings, hand brake cable, rear axel drop straps, plugs, ht leads, fitted a high capacity coil, contact breaker, battery and changed the painted wire wheels for chrome ones with new tyres. Included is a second set of painted wire wheels shod with dunlop r5 tyres which the previous owner used at shows because the r5 tyres are not street legal but look good for shows. The car drives well, starts easily and ticks over smoothly. She comes with a lined fitted car cover in blue.
you will have a fun time reliving your youth as the proud owner of a frog eye.
