Looks cared for. Had some alternator problems - 3 spare/old ones in the garage.

Re: Auction Riviera
Looks a nice car on the outside, but curious why there are no pictures of the interior.?????
Also like to know how they lifted the body with the engine and exhaust cam still fitted. I know from experience you can lift the body straight up with the engine in place, but you do need the exhaust cam carrier out of the way.

Re: Auction Riviera
Sold for £5500 + commission. I put a cheeky bid of £5200, but missed out.
I have interior photos - all looked very nice. In truth really worth closer to £10k
Body was lifted off with 2 post ramp.
