Items to note:
Front end has been repaired prior to me owning the car. When preparing the body for paint I noticed areas which had been repaired. It appears it has a whole new front end fitted. You would not notice from the outside that this work has been done.
Summary:
This car was restored in 2016. I have since had a back operation and working on cars is proving difficult for me. Therefore I am looking to sell. I have driven the car to a couple of shows and always walked away with a trophy. It is a real crowd puller and gets a lot of attention.
