Description

This car was originally sold by a BMC dealer in Stockholm and has had a total of 11 owners. The previous owner invested a significant amount of time and money into the vehicle, including a fully rebuilt engine with new bore, new pistons, new valve seats, new valves, and more, all done by a professional shop. The automatic transmission (M12 with electric kickdown) was also newly rebuilt by a professional shop. Additionally, extensive work has been done on the brakes and suspension, with invoices totaling well over 100,000kr.



Included with the car is a vast collection of older documentation, including invoices, inspection reports, and the original logbook. Mechanically, the car has been well maintained, but it does require some bodywork repairs and interior refurbishments, including reupholstering the rear seats for a nicer appearance. Despite these needs, this model is highly sought after as part of the first series, featuring the same 4.2 engine as the E-Type.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Starts directly with a smooth running and sounding engine, drives well in the gearbox and brakes and feels stable with driving and the engine bay is clean and tidy. Good wheels and chromne hubs cap and tires.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is complete, featuring recently reupholstered front seats, a new headliner, and fresh mats. However, the rear seat has some holes and discoloration, and would benefit from reupholstering. The rear seat back panel is loose and requires a simple refit. The dashboard and gauges are in good condition, and the door cards are intact, though some trim is slightly loose and there are a few missing pieces in the passenger side footwell (see pictures).

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork shows signs of older repairs, with small dents around the doors and some blisters around the lower bodywork, wings, and sills. The paintwork is mismatched in certain areas. The underbody appears solid, with some evidence of older welding and a few rust spots on the front panel and under the boot, but nothing serious. The chrome work all around is bright and shiny.

  • General condition:

    The car is drivable as is and has been used for a few years, but the bodywork needs attention and a fresh coat of paint to reach its full potential. It's priced very reasonably, allowing room for the necessary renovation work. Additionally, the engine and gearbox are highly sought after by E-Type owners in need of replacements, adding further value to this car.
