In a long single-family ownership for about 40 years prior to present ownership, the car has recently undergone a complete engine and gearbox rebuild with new counter balanced crank and rods by serious marque specialist, Tim Abbott. Has all the usual goodies - "A" gearbox, Sloper Carbs, and a particularly nice set of correct instruments.
