VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT CONDITION; SPARE IS GOOD ALSO NEW EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLE NEW STEERING WHEEL ELECTRIC OVERDRIVE (LAYCOCK DE NORMANVILLE) RECENTLY REBUILT. ALSO INCLUDED ARE NEW AIR DUCT AND HEATING DUCT TUBING, NOT INSTALLED. ANTENNA INCLUDED AND INSTALLED(NOT SHOWN IN PICS...WAS REMOVED FOR STORAGE) PART TO REPAIR OUTRIGGER MINUSES: UNDERSIDE HAS SOME SURFACE RUST ON THE FRAME AS YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A 44 YEAR OLD BRITISH AUTOMOBILE; BOTH ROCKER PANELS ARE RUSTY AND NEED REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. I NOTICED ONE FIBERGLASS REPAIR TO THE TRUNK AREA UNDERNEATH; THE RIGHT SIDE OUTRIGGER UNDER THE PASSENGER FOOTWEEL IS DAMAGED/DENTED...ONLY VISIBLE FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR; A REPLACEMENT PART WAS PURCHASED BUT NOT INSTALLED...THE PART IS INCLUDED WITH THE CAR. ORIGINAL AM RADIO IS IN THE CAR BUT THE POWER CABLE WAS PREVIOUSLY DISCONNECTED, SO WORKING CONDITION UNKNOWN. WOOD DASH HAS SOME SURFACE CRACKS; DASH PAD LOOKS NICE. CONVERTIBLE TOP WINDOW NEEDS RE-STICHING; WINDOW LOOKS GOOD AND IS CLEAR. TOP HAS 2 (2 INCH) LONG REPAIRS THAT ARE WATER TIGHT AS FAR AS I KNOW. THE TOP IS NOT THAT PRETTY BUT IT IS FUNCTIONAL. FRONT & REAR SEATS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION BUT DO HAVE SOME WEAR AND TEAR; SEPERATIONS IN SIDE SEAMS OF SEATS; SOME TEARS AND RIPS ON BACK OF DRIVER'S SEAT TOWARDS THE MIDDLE. SHOCKS ARE THE OLD STYLE LEVER ACTION AND NEED REBUILDING OR REPLACING. WATERPUMP IS FUNCTIONING WITHOUT NOISE; THE REAR SEAL OF WATERPUMP LEAKS WATER AND NEEDS REPLACING. THE CAR HAS BEEN PAINTED WITHIN THE LAST 10 YEARS(ORIGINAL COLOR); PAINT IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE AND LOOKS NICE OVERALL WITH SOME CHIPS MAINLY AROUND DOORS AND HOOD. THERE ARE A FEW CRACKS IN THE PAINT AT THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER WITH A VERY MINOR CREASE IN THE METAL( WHILE IT WAS IN THE SHOP HAVING THE OVERDRIVE REBUILT, ANOTHER VEHICLE KISSED IT SLIGHTLY). I AM LISTING THIS CAR FOR MY NEIGHBOR; HE HAS BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR SOME TIIME NOW AND DOES NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO FULLY RESTORE IT. HE HAS OWNED THIS CAR FOR AROUND 5 YEARS AND HAS ONLY PUT RIGHT AT 500 MILES ON IT SINCE HE ACQUIRED IT; ENGINE HAS BEEN EXERCISED EVERY MONTH. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR AND IT IS IN GOOD SHAPE. I BELIEVE IT WOULD NOT REQUIRE MUCH TO GET IT READY FOR THE ROAD; IF THE SHOCKS WERE REPLACED AND A NEW WATER PUMP WAS INSTALLED, THIS CAR WOULD BE READY TO DRIVE ANYWHERE. THIS CAR CAN AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN ON SHORT TREKS, BUT WITH THE WATER PUMP LEAKING WATER, IT SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN A LONG DISTANCE. HAVING SAID THAT, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT IT BE TRAILERED WHEN THE NEW OWNER PICKS IT UP. CAR IS LOCATED IN WINSTON-SALEM, NORTH CAROLINA. FULL PAYMENT WILL NEED TO BE MADE BY CASH OR BANK TRANSFER; THIS TRANSACTION WILL TAKE PLACE AT MY NEIGHBOR’S (THE OWNER'S) BANK.
