As you can see it is mostly original Throughout with all its key features obtained including original

Door cards, bulkhead interior trim, rear interior light Panel and headlining with the correct roof bars, l678 lucus beacon and original lucus side lights and military rear no plate lamp, these of which are unusual to sometimes still see on these vehicles after 60 years.

Originally a light grey vehicle with dark blue wheels, the blue colour of which can be seen underneath all four. these are also all date stamped 55" so are also original to the vehicle.

as is the original paintwork still visible also.

It was then painted white with an orange roof/bonnet as a recovery vehicle in its second life before retiring to private ownership

But will require some tidying/recommissioning for use or restoration at your choice

Slight whine from front diff, but good replacement unit is included as is new front prop shaft.

reluctant sale due to change of commitments so unfortunately funds are needed, v5c present with 3 previous owners and all the relevant numbers
