Description
Subject to a restoration some time ago, but now in need of tidying up, this car is in reasonable condition, with a strong engine, that starts easily and pulls well.
The green leather upholstery is in generally good condition and new carpets are fitted, as can be seen in the pictures. The chrome protection/ decorative panels that should cover the front of the rear wings are included and immaculate, though not currently fitted. My intention was to replace the windscreen rubber to stop some water ingress in heavy rain (a common problem with this model) and at the same time deal with some bubbling below the windscreen. There are a few patches of bodywork, which should be visible in the pictures, that I was also planning on tidying up before applying a light respray, because her most recent paint job was not well applied, resulting in some micro blistering, plus part of one wing is also a slightly different shade of black. I purchased the vehicle in September 2024, with the intention of returning it to its former glory but have faced health issues since it arrived, resulting in me doing little to the car other than sort a handbrake issue, resolve some wiring/ lighting problems and tidy the interior. She’s been sat in the garage over the winter and the brakes are now binding a little, they need checking over and adjusting plus she needs tuning to run smoothly and odour free. Workshop manuals are included in the sale as is a spare leaf spring. It could be a great example and deserves a new custodian.
I am hoping for a fairly quick sale so believe the price asked, or near offers is fair. Once the brakes are adjusted and the engine is tuned, this RME becomes a perfectly usable rolling project, that would probably only take 5 or 6 weekends to get sorted and prepared for a spray, should the new owner want to make her really shine.
