The car underwent an exhaustive 'chassis up' restoration with input from reputable specialists. The engine, gearbox, suspension, brakes, wiring, and fuel system were all overhauled or reconditioned. The ash frame was repaired, aluminum bodywork restored, and the interior was retrimmed with high-quality materials. The brightwork was refinished, and the car has been fine-tuned to ensure all mechanisms are functional. The previous owner invested a significant amount of time and money into the project, and the current owner has further refined it. This level of restoration and attention to detail suggests a condition rating of 9.
