From the Collection of an English Car Specialist Burlington, North Carolina

Recent ownership by an English Car Specialist, and many areas have been corrected to include: new wiring harness, aluminum radiator with a manually operated electric fan, rebuilt shocks with new shock links, poly bushings and sway bar mounts, new clutch pressure plate, and a polished stainless steel exhaust system. The cosmetics were improved with a Concept urethane two tone paint job, during repaint it was confirmed that the fenders and doglegs have never been repaired or cut. New fender beads were installed. A testament to the condition of this car. A new rear bumper with overriders was installed along with a new badge bar, Tri-Pod headlamps, chrome rims, and driving lights. The interior received new carpet, seat covers, door panels, and a trunk liner kit.

The following condition report, while thorough, is not exhaustive as vintage cars have inherent wear and imperfections. We welcome personal inspections.

Spare with lead hammer for knockoff is present; under the hood is mostly original condition without repaint; No apparent concerns.
