Well cared for for entire life span, two major restorations: 1999-2001 and 2025. Driven sparingly 2001-2024 so restoration brought the vehicle back to life. Restorations bring all the various bits that might be functional back to factory standard. All major systems and components evaluated and restored or replaced in 2025. One shop that specializes in British classics did the restoration.
Some of the work done:Removed subframe (cage) and disassembled down to the differential, axles, hubs, radius arms, and housing assemblies.
Following the removal of the rear subframe, the entire rear suspension and brake assemblies were fully disassembled. All parts were inspected, cleaned, and the main housing and pivot arms were media blasted and repainted. Rear handbrake assemblies were fully disassembled, repainted, re-greased, and reassembled. Rear hubs and hub carriers fully disassembled, cleaned and inspected.
New rear brake pads and hardware installed along with the hand brake sub-actuators. Differential assembly installed back into its cage and the lower pivot arms reinstalled with new bearings and seals.
Front brakes and hydraulics disassembled for cleaning and replacement. Removed and tested the fuel pump and it has preformed flawlessly. Installed a new fuel pickup filter and reassemble the fuel sump.
