New galvanised chassis fitted within last 5 years along with removable gearbox cross member. Has been fitted with a Series 3 bulkhead - solid and totally rust free.

Body work is pretty straight having been resprayed at some point in its life. Runs and drives extremely well, loads of torque and power from the V6 and will do 70mph easily if you so wish! I have kept this vehicle under cover since owning and has for the majority of the time been topless. Work completed in last 18 months.
