AI Listing Summary

This classic car has undergone some significant work, including an engine replacement and chassis refurbishment. While it boasts a resprayed body and a well-maintained interior, the limited history and potential need for minor reconditioning should be considered.

Condition

The car is described as having a replaced engine and refurbished chassis, along with a respray. The hood, upholstery, and interior are in very good condition, and all instruments are working.

The engine has been replaced with another 1200cc sports engine and the body has been fitted to a refurbished chassis.
