Seller listing states “It was my everyday car for some years until we bought a house in France and I stopped using it after buying an H van to move stuff to France. Since the early 90s. It has been parked in the barn in France but has not been started since 2006.
It deserves complete restoration and mechanically it was good when stopped using it, the body needs new door bottoms and the front wings need a little repair the rear wings need repair also, Assume that much more will be needed. It was a very reliable car and did 2 trips to the south of France without incident and years of trouble free motoring. It cost me four figures to bring it back from France so will start auction at that”
