This is a one off chance to own one of the coolest ovals in the UK. She was featured in Volksworld in June 2009 following a full body off restoration. They say that you never own a classic car; you merely look after them for the next generation. We have now ‘looked after' her for the last four years and have enjoyed every minute. Unfortunately the  pressures of modern day life has resulted in her not being used as much as we would like and we have made the ‘almost impossible' decision for her to be ‘looked after' by someone who can give her the time she deserves.

 

She was initially imported from Sweden where we believe she was originally used as an Emergency vehicle. She has had extensive works over the years. she underwent the transformation when the car was imported. she was taken apart which included a body off restoration. all parts which were worn were replaced with new or performance enhancements which include:

 

A 7 inch narrowed front beam. long rear axle to give that wider cal look stance. all new brakes/pipes. all new wiring. converted to 12v with working semaphores. new 1679cc engine with a 110 cam. gene berg pulley and HD oil pump. twin 40's. Geneberg linkage. 4. 5 and 6inch BRM's. original wings. bonnet. boot and doors. German running boards. Geneberg short shift gear shifter. Sewfine carpets. coach trimmed seats in diamond pattern and matching door panels and a Banjo steering wheel. We have also had rear seat belts fitted so that our 2 young boys could also enjoy the experience.

 

She has been driven like a pussycat but with the 1679cc twin carb engine she can also roar like a Lion if needed!! She is both Tax and MOT exempt so really cheap to run.

 

She is a real solid girl. she's not concours but nevertheless in very good ‘used ‘condition (hence £16k and not £26k!).

With spring now amongst us she's ready to start to be enjoyed. She has been priced for a quick sale as I need my garage back! The first to see will definitely buy.

£15. 95 ovno.
