Condition
7
While the car has been restored and maintained, its age and racing history suggest that it's unlikely to be in 'Pristine' or 'Outstanding' condition. The description mentions that during restoration, drawings of the Le Mans body were obtained from Abingdon and an accurate replica made, but the rest of the car including the engine (with the exception of the carburettor, which is of the correct downdraft configuration but of a different model) is believed to be original. The engine was rebuilt, it being noted that the special cylinder head had the copper plating which was typical of MG racing practice of the period. The car has been used in demonstrations, indicating it is in running condition but likely has some wear and tear. Therefore, a rating of 'Very Good' seems appropriate, considering its restored condition and historical significance.
