SUMMARY
This stunning example has been professionally restored and upgraded - rarely do such well restored Bs come to the open market.
DESCRIPTION
- The BMIHT Certificate confirms that this is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive example delivered new to Stewart & Arden Ltd. in Barnes on 20/03/1974
- Our vendor, a professional restorer, completed this car for his own use but a change of plans brings this beautiful example to market
- The body has had a bare-metal, windows-out respray in Mallard Green including the engine bay, boot and all floors to the interior. The underside of the car has been stripped and treated with E-tech paint finish
- The interior retains the original cord trim which is in good condition, new door cards and new carpets by Carelli. Fitted with Sundym glass which adds a rich-looking, light green tint to the windows
- The engine has only run for some 40 miles since a total rebuild with +30 pistons, new mains and big end bearings, new cam followers, timing chain, front and rear oil seals and a new clutch. Complete new exhaust system. Thermostatically controlled Kenlowe fan. The gearbox has overdrive in third and fourth gears
- All suspension has been removed, restored, with new wishbones, drop links, bump stops, track rod ends and finally new brake callipers
- Running new JBW 15" Minilight wheels with 'gun-metal' hi-lights and new Marshals.
- Offered with the BMIHT Certificate, V5C and some bills - the car will be driven to the sale. A superb B not to missed!
