* Rare survivor example of a durable comfortable classic
* Good basis for an everyday driver or a rolling restoration
* Low mileage and many original features


A rare survivor, this 'Mark 1' Ford saloon wears older paintwork and has escaped the fate of many, that of 'banger racing'. It is a running car to recommission and use as it is or carry out a rolling restoration. The body is good, with some age related marks and it benefits from a good original interior.
