The car underwent a 'last nut and bolt' restoration to concours standard, completed in January 2011. Since then, it has only been driven approximately 200 dry miles. The body shell was sandblasted, with panels replaced as needed, and repainted in Ice Blue and Old English White. The engine, rear axle, differential, clutch, gearbox, steering, and braking systems were thoroughly overhauled. All electrical components were either overhauled or replaced. The interior was completely re-trimmed with navy blue leather upholstery. The listing indicates meticulous attention to detail and originality during the restoration.
