According to its chassis number, the car is from 1963 and it was registered in Spain in 1964. As you can see in the pictures, the appearance was changed to the one of a later model, from year 1968.

The car has front and rear wings of the 1968 model, with new headlights and other lights fitted in 2014 when the bodywork works were carried out.

The bodywork was restored in 2014, and the car got new floors and longitudinal members. A good work was done to the chassis and all the parts that showed signs of wear or were rotten were replaced. The car underwent a protective treatment with epoxy resin paint.

In that same year, all mechanical repairs were carried out, including brakes, engine, clutch, electrical system, etc. All the mechanical components were serviced to work well. Since that date, the car has not travelled more than 10,000 km.

In 2021, new works were done: paintwork, convertible hood, interior (new seats, panels and carpet), rubbers replaced with new ones (doors, windscreen, bonnet, minor details), new wheels and hubcaps.

The condition of the interior is impeccable, very beautiful and brand new. The car has not been driven since the new restoration done 1 month ago. The convertible hood is brand new, but it got a crack in the rear window when mounting it. A small crack of just 2 cm which has been repaired with special filler for convertible hoods. The rest of the hood is impeccable, with black vinyl outside and white inside.

The car runs perfectly and is ready to travel any distance. It does not need any kind of work.

The car is located in Toledo, Spain.
