5 speed factory MANUAL gearbox. Overall this Classic is a great example for both body and chassis. It's very original apart from the exhaust and stereo. The chassis, boot floor, rear arches, sills, scuttle, body mounts and inner wings are all sound.
I've had a good poke around with a flat bladed screwdriver and cannot see anywhere that will require welding anytime soon. The areas mentioned have some surface rust but nothing more severe. The engine runs smoothly and idles correctly, it sometimes hesitates to start when hot, it does start though. The manual gearbox changes gear smoothly and has little noise.
High and Low work as they should. It sits at motorway speeds well. Recent work completed by Famous Four. October 2013, body-off welding to wheel arches, rear seatbelt points and inner wings. January 2015, full stainless steel exhaust fitted, including tubular manifolds (sounds fantastic).
July 2017, replaced rear floor-pan and fuel tank. December 2017, new HD battery, coil and HT leads. Windscreen is misty around the bottom edge and has a few chips, but MoT passed (again).
Central locking is intermittent on the passenger side doors. Sun-roof leaked - so fuse was removed and edges sealed up with silicone by previous owner. Lower tailgate showing rust at the bottom. Rear wiper doesn't work. Passenger front and rear electric windows work intermittently. Steering doesn't self-centre very well. This is not the usual rotten example and is a great opportunity to acquire an appreciating rare manual classic.
