I have decided to sell the car which I bought from Dominic (who rescued the car) 18 months ago. There will be many people in the club who know far more about the car than me.

Anyway, out of courtesy I thought I ought to write this post to let club members know that I have now listed the car in Autotrader. Whilst in Dominic's ownership it had a new engine, gearbox and front and rear suspension sub-assemblies fitted by Nick at Austin Garages. Also fitted were a new exhaust system, handbrake and compensator, brake pipes, condenser, new powder coated rear subframe, windscreen, battery. The discs and pads are all new, and the front pads were changed (although the existing standard ones were new) on recommendation from Austin Garages. The heater valve was changed as the original leaked.

The advert can be seen at http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classifi...ge=1&logcode=p .

The asking price of £8500 doesn't cover the cost of the work that has been done to the car plus the parts that have been fitted to it.

I am having to move house into rented accommodation, but in the fullness of time will look to buy another V8.

Regards,

Phil.
