The body on this car is fairly decent with a very good to excellent bonnet. There is some rust-through in the trunk and some in the front floors. Panel fit is very good. Some repair work is needed on the rear valence panel below the trunk. The trunk lid has some bubbling on the lower lip.
The interior has had it's carpets removed at one point. The dashboard is complete and original with nice gauges, and a set of keys. The seats are correct and original for the car.
The car still retains it's original stainless hubcap set. The car retains it's correct engine 1147 cc Mk2 engine, twin SU carbs, with FC prefix.

Overall, a decent affordable open classic sportscar with nice future collectability. These cars are very popular and usually inexpensive to restore to a very good level.
