AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Lacquered bodywork
The car has been previously restored and features a beautiful, fitting patina that fully highlights its character. The paint is in an attractive patina state that aligns well with the age and appearance of the vehicle. The photos accurately show the complete condition of the bodywork. It is advisable to examine these carefully, as all details are visible. For additional questions or extra photos, please feel free to contact us at any time.
Technical
The vehicle is always well maintained but has been stationary for the past eight years. For inspection, the car was quickly but correctly started using an external petrol tank and pump. The engine runs smoothly and quietly, with no noteworthy issues. The car shifts, brakes, and drives well, and no loss of water or oil pressure problems have been detected. However, to bring the vehicle back to a safe and roadworthy condition that meets expectations, it is advisable to have it fully serviced technically.
Interior
The interior is in good to very good condition and largely original, supplemented with a few new components. The patina present gives the car a very good appearance and suits its character. The roof appears to have been renewed and is in good condition. The dashboard is very original and functions correctly. As with the bodywork, all details are clearly shown in the photos, which should be viewed carefully. For questions or additional images, please feel free to contact us at any time.
Documentation
The car is registered in Belgium and possesses Belgian papers. There is no additional documentation available.
Additional information
The car is being sold due to a death. It is a nice, reliable vehicle that provides a good foundation and does not anticipate significant costs.

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.
