Description

This car was restored about 25 years ago and has been stored ever since until I bought it about 6 yrs ago. It had been resprayed and re roofed with a fiberglass membrain under the leathercloth. Since I have owned it I have overhauled the brakes, new front cylinders and linings. New front and rear shockers. gear box out and clutch checked. New linkages. New bronze thermastat housing and stat. new steering rack gaters. wheels powder coated black. All underbody undersealed. Door cards removed window winders and wood work serviced doors waxyold. All wood good. Upholstery good for age. New roof lining and carpets. Engine is good does not burn any oil and oil pressure is 40 psi at 50 mph. She drives beautifly . I had two Rileys in 1968 One was an RMB2 and then a 1/ 12 RME. Fash bye 45 yrs and this one came up so I always loved the Riley and decided to go back in time. They are lovey cars to own and drive. Being a sports saloon they have great looks and good road holding. They are easy to maitain and spares are readily available through the RME club.
