There are many receipts on file dated 1990, so I beleive it was restored then. There are also old style photo's in the history file of the restoration which was a complete nut & bolt, body of project.
The car was beleived to be housed in a carcoon shortly after & the person we got it of was the owner of one himself. Therefore although an older restoration, it is like the day it was finished.
Body:
The body is in excellent condition. There are no horrible ripples down the sides. I have tried to photograph the sides as best I can to show the quality. There are no visible signs of rust or bubbles anywhere. The door gaps are all great & doors close properly. The engine bay is all in good order down the inner wings & wing tops. All like new.
Engine:
Beleived to have been rebuilt at the same time, it is all painted & pristine. On start up there is a lovely sound that fills your ears. It ticks along fantastic with no smoke or worries.
Interior:
Again not much to say but in top condition. Seats all as new with no rips or tears to front or back seats.
Overview:
All in all the car is in fantastic condition. A very very rare car to add to the RS collectors fleet or just any collector of rare quality cars.
