Underneath had some localised repairs and then spray painted black. Rocker box and cam cover painted body colour. New battery tray fitted in boot. Engine. full service and carbs re-tuned.
This car drives really well and is great fun and would cost a fortune to replicate.
The car is in lovely condition which I would class as very. very good especially considering its age and was previously restored. photos included within file of receipts.
Drives better than most and can easily keep up with modern traffic and is a lot faster than a real GT and would cost around £30k if it were a genuine GT and only be half the fun.
MOT until 2017 (May I think)
Only selling as lost storage and struggling to find somewhere else suitable as I already have a number of classic fords. If I resolve before auction ends I will end the listing and will be keeping the car as it is a lovely car and a great investment.
Car is located in Essex.
Can assist with export if required.
