AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Technical

This car is in very good and original condition technically. The engine starts immediately and runs perfectly. In 2024, a major service was performed, during which the engine block was partially rebuilt. The carburetors were also refurbished. In 2022, the clutch and pressure plate were replaced, as well as the brakes.

Interior

The interior is in good and particularly original condition and has remained almost entirely original. The car is equipped with leather seats. The dashboard is sleek and tidy, fully original, and fitted with the original gauges. The original cover cap is also present.

Chassis

The chassis is sturdy and original. The car has passed inspection every year without issues. The current owner (enthusiast/collector) keeps the car dry and stored indoors during both summer and winter. Last year, major maintenance was carried out, and the car was thoroughly checked. Furthermore, it remains completely original and unrestored.

Exterior

The car remains in good condition. Of course, there are some signs of use appropriate to its age. Recently, the car was fully high-gloss polished by a professional car detailer, resulting in a beautiful finish as seen in the photos. The chrome is in its original condition.

General

In short, a very fun and honest original car. Perfect as a summer daily driver and at the same time a stable and interesting investment.

Documents & Pickup

Equipped with Dutch papers. For sales outside the Netherlands, we can provide the export documents free of charge.
The car can be picked up in Hardenberg.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
