The car is described as being in outstanding condition considering the restoration took place over 40 years ago. The bodywork and interior show little sign of wear, the all-weather gear is complete and in good order, the wheels and tires require no attention, and the chrome work glitters like new. A new battery was recently fitted, and the engine starts easily and runs silently. Recent upgrades to the starter motor, flywheel, and clutch further suggest a well-maintained vehicle.
