Nigel,

Awesome car.

You might want to update whichever description is inaccurate to avoid any misunderstandings. This ad says 12000 miles; the V8register says 120,000.

I've got a '69 four-banger, spoke wheels, overdrive. Enjoyable cars--wish I had that Wabasto roof.

The new owner emailed me ,it ran faultlessly from the Uk to Bucharest, but he was alarmed at the amount of fuel he used on his 30 hour drive!! . It is the first V8 in Romania.
