The price puts me off !!
Sportwagen is a great company for restoration , so that bit is good , then you have the issue of originality of every part large and small to support the price , I don't know enough to call that . The kidney is safe .

Price is right based on recent sales of 65 with non original engine but anyone interested would BE ADVISED to speak with Vic first.....

There will always be details that are wrong on a fully 'restored' car

There are a lot of anomalies for a June '65 car, but, being fair to Sportwagen they don't claim it is 'as original'. Looks like a lot of care was taken over the rebuild so it's a bit of a pity there are so many inaccuracies.
That VIN plate and punched number look remarkably clean......................??
