Inca Yellow
101,000 miles
MOT & Tax exempt
Purchased the car in February 2023 as a project for me, brother & dad. Dad was a mechanic for the majority of his career and has undertaken - with son support ;-) - the majority of works listed below. Reason for sale: moving on to our next classic!
The car was in reasonable condition at the time of purchase, a rubber bumper example with a strong chassis and decent bodywork for its age.
Chassis remains strong with no rust issues.
Bodywork is decent condition, particular when considering the age. Paint has micro-blistered in areas, but doesn't show until close inspection.
Roof and tonneau cover in excellent condition. Hard top will be provided with car, but requires refurbishment.
Interior is in great condition, seats and carpets unmarked.
Original Rostyle wheels will be included but require refurbishment.
Tyres in great, nearly new condition.
History file with lots of receipts.
List of modifications and enhancements since we've owned the car:
*Front & rear 'facelift' / rubber bumpers removal (front conversion kit + mesh grill and clear indicators. Chrome rear quarter bumpers.)
*Cylinder head refurbished & unleaded fuel converted
*Minilight 13" alloy wheels and avon tyres (barely covered 50 miles!)
*New intake manifold
*Fully rebuilt twin HS4 carburettors
*Four-branch exhaust manifold
*Stainless steel exhaust system
*New radiator & hoses
*AccuSpark electronic ignition conversion
*New clutch master/slave cylinders
*New brake master cylinder and front discs/pads
*New front suspension springs
*Upgraded rocker cover
*Various minor bodywork repairs / respraying
*Lots of other minor parts (fittings, bulbs, filters, hoses/lines, accessories, etc.)
Great example of a much-loved British classic. Ideal for those venturing into classic car ownership, just like us a few years ago! Since taking ownership, we've covered very limited mileage (occasional local drives and classic car show attendance).
