I think I'm selling my '82 Coupe.
It's a great car and I really do love it to pieces but my habit of changing cars won't die so I'm after another. She's done 74,000 miles with extensive history to prove. I'm the 4th owner (the chap I bought it from had it for a few weeks and bought it off the original owners husband). Refurbed alloys with 4 new Vredestein HiTracs; Coxyified paintwork with regular applications of Dodo Juice; Weber carb fitted; new cambelt and water pump; original period Pioneer radio (actually, its the one the original owner had in the 80 she p/x'ed, according to the bill of sale!); really solid underneath; all round a brilliant car and obviously with a five-pot soundtrack. The interior is the only let down. The rear carpet has faded much more than the front and consequently is pale orange rather than blue. I do have some carpet dye which will go with it though. Bolsters on both front seats are worn through. I had intended to have these done in co-ordinating blue leather but finances and time have counted against me. Everything works with the exception of the electric aeriel. I know that I'm going to regret this as I'll never find another but I can't help getting itchy... I know what I paid for her and how much I've spent on her on imrovements (not just service items) so I do feel the price is there or thereabouts. These really are brilliant daily-driver classics which will happily cruise at 80mph all day and still give you well over 35mpg. But then most of you know that. PM me or call on 07515 028 529. Cheers, Nick |
