I resently bought a stag 1977 manual of ebay and the trader misadverised it but before I go to small claims it may be off interest to a member as the body work has been restored (which we all know is not cheap) but mechanically it needs work. The car was taken of the road in 1999 and dry stored till sold in 2009 and the previous owner did some of the work the rest was finished in the last couple of years.
Good points
New unfitted recon frame and roof
New minulite alloys and tyres
New burr walnut dash
Refurbished front seats approx 2012
Big bore stainless steel exhaust
Prior to being taken off the road had Koni shocks and springs suspension was polybushed ( I have receipts)
New boot floor front and rear valence sills and other panels have been replaced
Respray in red
I have had carbs tuned and new plugs and fuel filter fitted.
Bad bits
Engine knocks think it's no 2 cylinder
Front and rear brakes will need replacing but metal pipes and rubbber look like they have been done.
Nsr drive shaft need replacing.
I have driven this car on trade plates and compared to my other stag it drives very tight and firm and with a bit of tlc could easily be worth £16k . I looking for £9k which is what I paid without work carried out and collecting car.please note last mot was 1999 I have lots of old mots and receipts car has done 78k. If you are interested pm me and I will send photos .i am in Staffordshire to view the car or ring me 07733363992 anytime for a chat about the car.I will leave it on forum until the weekend after which I will carry on with plan A
