S/N FCA41413428
ENGINE 277993
THIS CAR WAS ACQUIRED SOME YEARS AGO FROM A COLLECTOR FRIEND WHO HAD LOST HIS STORAGE AND WORK SPACE. UNFORTUNATELY LIFE GOT IN THE WAY, AND I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GIVE IT THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES. IT WAS LAST REGISTERED IN ALBERTA, LIKELY ABOUT 2001.
THE CAR HAS RECEIVED SOME APPROPRIATE RECONDITIONING IN THE PAST, MOTOR SAID TO HAVE BEEN REBUILT, REPAINTED IN THE SILVER COLOUR YOU SEE, AND RE-UPHOLSTERED TO A HIGH STANDARD. THE TOP IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NO MAJOR WEAR OR TEARS. THE GLASS IS ALL UNMARKED.
THE FUEL TANK, LINE, PUMP AND CARBURETOR HAVE BEEN PURGED, CLEANED AND NEW FUEL INSTALLED. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES VERY NICELY, SHIFTING SMOOTHLY INTO ALL FOUR GEARS. COMPRESSION IS EVEN ACROSS ALL FOUR CYLINDERS.
THIS CAR WILL BE AN EASY PROJECT FOR THE PURCHASER. IT REQUIRES NEW TIRES AND NEW BRAKE CYLINDERS (HAND BRAKE ONLY WORKS) TO BE MECHANICALLY SOUND. PARTS ARE READILY AVAILABLE FROM MOSS MOTORS, AND OTHER SPECIALITY SUPPLIERS AT REASONABLE PRICES (SEE ATTACHED).
THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER IS POORLY REPAIRED, A NEW FENDER STILL IN THE WRAPPER IS SUPPLIED. THERE IS A SMALL RUST SPOT UNDERNEATH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR, OTHERWISE IT IS VERY SOUND.
A GASKET SET AND SOME OTHER SMALL PARTS ARE INCLUDED WITH THE CAR.
PASSED ALBERTA SAFETY INSPECTION 1969-SEE WINDOW STICKER
THIS WILL BE A NICE LITTLE SUNSHINE RUNABOUT FOR MANY YEARS TO COME!
