VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
I do not know the history of the car, I saw it sitting under a lean to shed where it had been for about 15 years and asked the owner if he'd sell it he said he would and it took about an hour to get it running. It was painted green, but the paint was finished - cracked and peeling luckily we don't get much rust here. Took a restoration guy ten months to do a (mainly) bare metal respray and I had the grille rechromed. Trying to get the tem
guage working - no luck so far with a new capillary. I bought a heater but do not know yet how to fit it and a lot of the parts bought from Kantor just plain do not fit - not sure whether its modifications to the car, or wrong parts!
