Description
Everything appears to be in working order, and the nearly 60-year-old car wears its age with dignity. Extra rubber mats, as well as the original instruction book, service manual, and documentation, are included. There are also a number of older inspection reports. The car has been inspectioned/MOTed and is ready to drive.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Everything works, and the car feels as stable and reliable as a nearly 60-year-old Amazon should. It starts easily, runs smoothly, and has strong brakes. The clutch should be checked since it can jam when downshifting at low speeds. The underbody has not been examined, but everything appears to be in good working shape and is reportedly unwelded.
-
Interior condition
Interior is mostly complete and nice, however there is some noticeable wear. Headliner is in good condition. The dashboard is free of cracks, however there is a little gap between the speedometer and the gauges. The rubber mat at the gear lever boot are worn. A small amount of marks around the door steps.
-
Exterior condition
A few years ago, it was professionally repainted in its original color. The front and rear windows were not removed while repainting. Glass and chrome are in good shape, with only minor dents and age wear in the bodywork. Good wheels and tires.
-
General condition
A good and neat, well-functioning Amazon from the cheerful 1960s, in a nice color scheme, with an uncommon original accessory with differential brake. It's ready to drive away, but like with any classic, there's something to refine for those who desire it.
