c. 1970 SKODA Octavia Combi 1221cc petrol CAR
Reg. No. ELF 637J (expired)
An unusual UK specification, right-hand drive, two-door estate car featuring a distinctive split rear tailgate. Seldom seen on UK roads, this presents a highly worthwhile restoration project. A genuine 'barn-find', this charming shooting brake is believed to have been in storage for c. 45 years.
Presenting in strictly "as-found" condition, the interior has survived remarkably well. Furthermore, the underside appears to be in commendable shape given the period laid-up.
The nearside rear wheel and the bonnet release mechanism are both currently seized, preventing access to the engine bay. The radiator has been removed and is located in the boot, alongside an assortment of other spare parts.
Accompanied by a selection of Octavia instruction manuals.
Please note that no registration documents are present; prospective bidders should satisfy themselves regarding the necessary procedures to acquire a replacement V5C.
Assistance with loading will only be available following the conclusion of the sale.
Keys, historical tax discs and MOT in office
Estimate: Offered without reserve
