Priorities in the restoration are as follows, Rebuild the running gear, particularly front and rear suspension and brakes, retrim the interior and hood/hard top lining, including adding a rear jump seat. There is some small body work required to the righthand wheel well in the boot and some repairs to the inner front wings.
After this, and subject to money the priorities are a repaint in the original colours and rechroming some items.
here is a photo of each area to give an idea of what is required. (all courtesy of Will Samples)
On the plus side for the car, whilst it has been poorly maintained during its last few years on the road it is very original and a good starting point for a nice drivable car.
