After 6 years of ownership I sadly no longer have the time to care for this original vehicle and it is time to find its new owner.
If you are looking for a car as close to original condition as possible then do message me for an inspection. It is unmolested and detailed to represent its original form rather than upgraded and modernised. The interior has to be one of a handful that survive in their original forms. It smells of the 1950’s!
