The car is described as being in very good condition and since the vendor bought the car it has been kept in a garage in an Air Chamber which removes moisture and keeps it dry - the chamber costs £500 and is included in the sale.

    This matching numbers car comes with a Heritage certificate, V5 document, old MoT test certificates dating back to 2002 and a valid certificate until August 2007.

    Estimate £27,000 - £32,000

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
