Does anyone know what has happened to the lovely trim from the donor car please?
The buyer sent me a list of the parts that he's stripped from the poor little thing. In my opinion, everything internal except the back seat base (sprung and rexine covered) was original and eminently save-able, as was the sunroof. These would be ideal for a sensitive restoration to "original" condition by someone who appreciates the value of these things. It's just a tragedy that they're no longer where they should be!
"You did show some interest in the leather seats….. Removing ALL the parts not used by the electric drive, I would like to list what I will not be using.
The ‘as fitted’ 3 bearing engine and gearbox - complete, as removed. [Video shows engine working OK]
Full exhaust from front to back - complete and assembled as removed
Radiator - but NOT the chrome cowl - This held water and seems undamaged
Complete sliding roof, running track and rebated steelwork [seemingly OK but not catches as you know]
Leather seat COVERINGS only from the shells.
Rear Leather back seat in tact, and rear spring seat (not covered??)
Side door panels with floppy leather pockets, removed carefully but some wooden rot.
Side rear window panels - one good pattern, one rotten.
Petrol tank complete with fuel level electrics. [NB, the is being COPIED for further use]
4 Tyres, inner tubes and one oversized tyre which fits 19” wheels."
