vehicle description:

Hi I bought this car from my neighbours widow, it was her husbands pride and joy , having spoken to him prior to his death he told me he had the engine reconditioned at a cost of £1500 I cannot varify this as he died of cancer and his wife couldn"t find the paperwork. The car was laid up in his garage and he was halfway doing something to the drivers door as the door card is removed .I have not touched the car except to tow it to my house when she sold their house and needed it out of the garage. I believe the car to be all there although some parts are in the boot and in the back seat area , It was to be a project for when I get a lull in work but that hasn"t happened and now its one project too many. it needs tyres they will inflate to load but don"t hold air for more than a day. It also needs a battery and brake-pipes and of course re-commissioning. I haven"t tried to start it cos I just haven"t got the time. A lovely British iconic classic that deserves to be put back on the road.    Please no time wasters  no under 10 feedback and I will not export if you want it come and buy it and take it away [trailer].
