The car is described as being in good shape with great panels and a nice lustre to the paint. The chromework is also good. The interior is beautifully simple and wonderfully elegant, with the original leather on the front seats being beautifully patinated.

The owner reports that he has had many parts replaced recently, including the alternator, water pump, radiator, steering rack, suspension spheres, ignition barrel, and many hydraulic components and seals.
