It had an overhaul including fitting a new galvanised chassis in 2004 - I have photos of this from the previous owner. The engine was also rebuilt by vega tune. It has an electric cooling fan and battery isolator switch fitted.

Paintwork is ok but not brilliant - it has the patina of age as most vendors seem to describe it.

The car drives well and the gearchange is smooth.
