Descripción
1967 Originally FHC before undergoing extensive rebuild into the car for sale today. Ideal as a Road / Race car, I purchased it 2 years ago from a barn find and have gone though the car extensively with the idea of saving it.
Recommended jobs left:
Electric windows are all together but need relays working out as they go up but not down.
Roof is present but not on the frame.
Rear race roll bar present but not fitted.
I'd recommend a proper rolling road set up.
