Not So Good Bits

·         Paint under fuel filler neck has been damaged slightly as shown

·         Some bubbling around the headlights

Speedo is of by about 5-10mph depending on how fast you are going. Needs a new worm and pinion to fix. never changed due to not having problems with it.

 

The car is mechanically sound and runs really well I have done the London to Brighton in her 3 times and she has never skipped a beat. the body work now needs a little TLC to make this car perfect! Otherwise this is a lovely car that puts a smile on your face every time you drive it.
