Description from the seller

Mechanical:
Mechanically, this car is in very good and original condition. The engine starts immediately and runs perfectly. In 2024 a major service was performed, during which the engine block was partially rebuilt. The carburettors have also been rebuilt. In 2022 the clutch and flywheel were renewed, as well as the brakes.

Interior:
The interior is in good and particularly original condition and remains almost completely original. The car is equipped with leather seats. The dashboard is clean and neat, fully original and equipped with the original gauges. The original cover cap is also present.

Chassis:
The chassis is solid and original. The car has passed inspection every year without issue. Under the current owner (enthusiast/collector), the car is stored dry and indoors, both in summer and winter. Last year, major maintenance was carried out and the car was fully serviced. Also entirely original and unrestored.

Exterior:
The paint is still in good condition. Naturally there are some signs of use consistent with the age and mileage. Recently the car was fully high-gloss polished by a professional car detailer, with a stunning result as seen in the photos. The chrome is in original condition.

General:
In short, a very nice and honest original car. Perfect as a summer daily driver and at the same time a solid and interesting investment.

Documents & Pickup:
Equipped with Dutch papers. For sales outside the Netherlands we can provide the export documents at no cost. The car can be picked up in Hardenberg.

Disclaimer

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.
