Bodywork condition:
The bodywork has been restored to its original form and was completely repainted. The lacquer has a deep shine and is homogeneous in color. The finish quality of the paintwork is good with only minor finishing flaws. There are only minor signs of age and use around the car. The body panels were restored and run nice and tight. The reveals between the different body panels run nicely parallel. The chrome is partly original with normal signs of age and use. The rubber bumpers were converted to new chrome bumpers, as well as a matching front grille. A chrome luggage rack is placed on the trunk lid. The closing edges and door hinges are in a neatly finished and maintained condition. The body rubbers are the original ones with normal signs of age. The trunk is in original condition, the accompanying upholstery has been renewed. The black fabric convertible roof was renewed and is in very good condition. An older vinyl cover is provided for the convertible roof.

State of wheels:
Fitted are new 60-spoke chrome alloy wheels with central nut, all in good condition. The tires are of the Falken brand all around, type Sincera, size 165/80 R14 (85T), production week 03/2022, all in almost new condition with > 6 mm tread depth.

Mechanical condition:
The engine compartment was repainted at some point and is in good condition with normal minor signs of age. The engine and accessories (cooling system, collectors, carburettors, etc.) are largely according to original specifications, the original Zenith carburettors were replaced by SU carburettors. The whole is visually in good condition with minor signs of age. The engine starts and runs smoothly without any abnormal noises. The operation of the clutch and gearbox feels normal. There are no major leaks on the mechanical/hydraulic parts, only normal 'sweating'. The exhaust was renewed at some point and is in decent condition with minor normal signs of wear. The car is equipped with a power braking system according to original specifications with disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. The braking system is visually in well-maintained condition. The suspension is according to original specifications and is visually in good condition with minor signs of age, but also with traces of good maintenance.

Electrical status:
The lighting is according to original specifications and works in the normal regulatory manner. The wiring has recently been renewed. The electrical appliances, accessories and dashboard instruments are largely according to original specifications and are in correctly functioning condition. The car is equipped with a more modern Caliber radio with a retro look. There is no additional anti-theft protection, but there is a battery switch with removable key.

Recently completed works:
* Completely new wiring harness
* New tires
* New brake discs
* New gas tank
* New water pump
