Vehicle History
Remarks
The car has been fully checked. we decided not to remove body as the chassis is in excellent condition as is the underside of the car.. The exterior of the car was sanded and any defects in the body remedied and professionally resprayed in the Glasgow Bodyshop. Colour is a Mitsibushi Metallic Grey. Mazda Miata seats were fitted and the interior coloured red as pictures, I had 576 facebook likes and huge amount of very complimentary comments.Fitted front spotlights and the anti roll bars. New carpets fitted and new convertible roof which requires slight adjustment. New clutch and major engine overhaul although cylinder block was not rebored as was in excellent order but cylinder head was skimmed and valves done so runs on unleaded fuel although I only use E5 petrol for it. Brakes were done including master slave cylinder, I have spent thousands on the car but I am fortunate in that I have my own workshop for my hobby so anything required was done no expense spared.
