Reason for sale: I started this restoration about 13 years ago at my family home in Surrey. A couple of years after starting I moved to Leeds leaving the car in Surrey. I've tried to do a few weeks work on it each year but have gradually done less and less so now it is time for it to go to a good home where it can be finished and put back on the road.
Please note: I have the original registration document and receipt but never got around to registering the car in my name. If you decide to buy and would prefer me to register it in my name before purchase I will do so.
