Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1936 Austin 7 Pearl Cabriolet is a project car with a notable history, including use as a show car and TV appearances. While the bodywork and engine were previously in high standard and it starts easily, the paintwork requires attention, indicating it needs some TLC to reach its full potential.
Condition
6
The car is described as a project that has been in storage and not run much in the last two years. While the bodywork and engine were previously noted as being in a high standard, and it started easily after charging the battery, the paintwork is described as 'a bit rough in places' and was being prepped for touching up. The roof is in excellent condition, and it had a new windscreen. Overall, it requires some TLC and minor reconditioning to return to its former glory, placing it in the 'Good' category.
