The car is described as a 'beautiful restored example' with photos of the restoration included, detailing a full rebuild. It's believed to have been restored to a beautiful standard in the mid-1980s and shows only 60,000 miles. While not explicitly stated as 'pristine', the description implies a very high level of condition with minimal signs of use since restoration.
