Very early UK supplied car built 4th December 1962. Matching numbers with original engine and gearbox.
Full owner history from new including original buff log book. Ist owner for 2 years, 2nd owner for 5 years. 3rd owner bought it in 1970 and used by him until he sadly passed away in 2000. The car remained untouched in his garage up until 2021 when due to a house move his widow decided to sell the car. I purchased it from her and have restored it to its former glory.
On purchasing it I was able to get it running without any problem. After an oil and filter change it ran beautifully but it whined in 2nd gear. I had the gearbox professionally rebuilt and while it was away being done I decided to bare metal the shell and get it professionally painted. ( many photos taken ). This revealed an amazing rust free body. I could not believe how good it was. The chrome bumpers were re-chromed along with other chrome parts that needed doing. Brakes refurbished, wire wheels dipped and powder coated with new tyres, new correct hood, along with any other parts that needed replacing . The interior including seats, door cards, carpets were all good and just cleaned.
This a very early survivor being one of the first 540 UK cars built in 1962. It is in beautiful running condition ready to be enjoyed. Due to other interests it is just not getting used as it should be, hence the decision to offer it for sale. £14500 ovnoBought because of its history being a very early built car. Nice genuine low ownership car.
