SUMMARY

This 1,275cc, round wheel-arch car has formed part of the Stoneacre Collection and is offered with No Reserve.

DESCRIPTION

In recent years this car has formed part of an extensive collection of motor vehicles. As such it has received little or no attention and is in a condition that could fairly be described as 'barn find.' It will undoubtedly require an element of recommissioning before it could be expected to return to the road. Inspection of the vehicle and its history file are therefore highly recommended prior to the sale to establish what is or may be required and to inspect any relevant paperwork or history file.

  • UK-market Mk lll 1,275cc, round wheel-arch, chrome bumper car in black with a black interior
  • MOT'd within the last six years and kept in dry storage
  • Whilst its period in storage has left its marks and cobwebs etc., the car does appear to be quite solid in appearance at first glance
  • Given the availability of parts, its return to the road should be fairly straightforward
  • The round-arch, chrome bumper cars produced for model years 1972-1974 are considered by many to be the most desirable and this example, in a rare colour and at No Reserve, makes a lot of sense
  • No history file available, V5 will need to be applied for.
