History
I'm the 4th owner since new, bought new in Burbank California in 1971. Came with original build sheet, protector plate and booklet, original glove box owners book, number plates and receipts for all work since new. engine rebuild and balance carried out in 1993 along with current paint job in the factory colour, so paint is 22 years old. Some minor blemishes but still looks great for the age.
