Bought recently but too many projects means this charming little car has to go. Previous owner had done some bodywork. mainly door frames. bought new seat tubs. engine manifold and various parts. Prior to his ownership. quite a number of years ago. the complete rolling chassis had been restored. I had been told that the running gear was also rebuilt. but I do not know to what standard and recommend that it be looked at. The engine is tight to turn over. I had removed the head and checked the bores and these don't appear to be causing a problem. The sump was also removed and the big ends look ok. so am not sure why the difficulty to turn over and have not persisted. so it doesn't run.
There are boxes of fittings and various body repair sections. but please contact me for any details. The photos provide a good idea of what restoration work is required.
