I've had this car for over 30 years and selling due to needing more space. This 13/ 60 Herald has only had 2 owners from new and I have the original bill of sale.
This car is a real beauty, the Midnight Blue paintwork makes the car gleam and really shows off the chrome work, it runs and drives superbly with a smooth gearbox. The car’s had a new roof fitted a few years ago which is in excellent condition, no tears or rips, a few nibbles from putting it up and down but it's in great condition.
Bodywork is good with a few small rust spots on the bottom of the doors, near the boot and wheel arches but it looks great. I've repaired panels and arches over the years as needed. Underside of the car is in good condition and has been treated with wax oil for protection.
The interior is original and tidy, no rips or tears in the upholstery, the dashboard lacquer has started to crack a bit but it is still a lovely deep colour. I've recently replaced the carpets with a new dark blue carpet set.
I have both covers for the roof opening, the hood bag that hides the folded-down soft top and the full tonneau which covers from the dashboard all the way to the back seats. I also have an additional set of wheel trims and bumper spares.
Lots of paperwork, itemised garage bills, MOTs, manuals etc. and the original bill of sale for the car.
