Condition

The car has had a recent restoration to a very high standard retaining all of its original features. The seller believes this car is a potential concours winner. The seats are still firm, supportive and free of rips, tears and damage. The door cards are in similarly good condition, as is the carpet. The white headlining is taut and damage free. The dashboard is in pristine condition and all the switches, gauges and instruments work as they should.
