Description

This lovely little car has undergone a Sebring body transformation by a professional restorer. IN 2024 it was transformed into a Sebring replica with an MX5 1.8 engine , gearbox , front seats and dash instruments. MGC aluminium bonnet. Upgraded discs and pads. New Koni shock absorber conversion. Front and rear anti roll-bars. Braided brake hoses. New fuel tank, all new bushes and joints and new brake master cylinder. New windscreen, new cam belt just done again with guides and bearing. New plugs, new oil and fuel filters.H4 headlamp conversion, new bonnet rams, new door locks, new front indicator lamps, new battery, new engine oil, new axle oil, new brake fluid, new clutch fluid, fresh anti freeze and a new MOT. Since then it has done few miles and been kept in a warm garage on trickle charge. The engine odometer shows 115,000 miles but the restorer reconditioned the engine . It runs beautifully , starts first time and a real head turner. The colour was resprayed too in this fabulous jaguar gold and looks fantastic. Selling due to lack of time and an imminent house move abroad. NO RUST at all. The interior was done and very good, but in my honest opinion it could do with an upgrade and is this is reflected in the price.
