History
I purchased the car in 2010 sight unseen. It was stored in a garage in Ipwich Qld and had not driven since 1979. The car had been repainted from the ox blood to a mustard. The dry climate protected the metal from rust but was not kind to leather and fabrics. It had only minor rust but had become a home for hornets.
I have bare metal resprayed and completely rebuilt the motor, suspension, brakes etc.
Modifications
The wheels are now 8 X 16 inch on 2600 centres instead of the 400mm pizza cutters. The steering box has been replaced by power assisted rack and pinion.
