Full Description: Car was bought by me in good condition in 1987. Engine was very poor, it was the original i think 1050cc. I changed to a 1500cc in '89. The car is kept in a garage and is only used with the hood down in perfect weather. I had the brakes, gearbox and clutch done in 1/08 and will do a reupholstery and repaint in 2009. I live presently in Europe, drive the car just once per year. The car is not stored on blocks, but on rubber mats. Never a problem to start the engine, usually after 3 turns. Looking to add a lugage rack and maybe white rimmed tyres ( have to check if they were used in '58). More pictures to follow.
