"The car runs well and performed fine during the test drive, but the gear selector could use newer linkages or bushes as it's a bit imprecise. Given its limited use last year, a service and inspection are recommended. Inspected and exempt for life."

Description

This car underwent a previous renovation, with recent improvements made to the brake pipes, brake cylinder, clutch, clutch cylinder, and fuel pump in the tank. Regular servicing has included the replacement of spark plugs, cables, oil, and fluids. The current owner acquired the car three years ago and has mainly used it as a summer car. At the time of purchase, the car had a newly installed red vinyl interior. It's worth noting that this car has had 8 registered owners, and the mileage is estimated to be around 228,000 kilometers.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car starts smoothly and idles slightly high when cold but stabilizes when warmed up. The gear shifts well, though the gearbox selection could use new bushings. Brakes and handling are good. Given its limited use in the past year, a minor inspection and service is recommended. It has good tires and newer alloy and a complete set of original wheels and hubcaps plus extra headlights. The engine bay would benefit from cleaning and tidying up.

  • Interior condition:

    Recently reupholstered seat and new carpets are in great condition. The door card and headliner remain in their original state, displaying typical signs of wear. The wooden dashboard is complete but does show some older cracks and has been re varnished, with an acceptable condition considering its age. All the gauges are original, and the speedometer is slightly loose, requiring a minor adjustment. In general, the interior is in good shape and tidy. However, the rubber trims on the sills are too thin and would benefit from thicker rubber to maintain an authentic look. There is a crack on the steering wheel, but a good used replacement is included with the car.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car's bodywork is in good shape, appearing straight and free from rust. However, there are signs of previous welding work and repairs on the underbody and around the struts in the trunk area, as can be seen in the provided pictures. The car underwent a repaint approximately 10+ years ago, and the paint still maintains a bright appearance, albeit with some minor marks and blemishes. The chrome work remains shiny and largely undamaged, although there is some wear in certain areas, as depicted in the pictures. Additionally, some of the rubber seals around the windows appear dry.

  • General condition:

    The car is in presentable condition and runs and drives smoothly. There are no pressing mechanical concerns. Cosmetic improvements can be tackled gradually over time, as there are no immediate or urgent issues to address.

For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
