The car was finished from the factory in Colorado Red, and the body was stripped, various panels were replaced, and it was repainted green during the aforementioned refurbishment. Exterior details include a green soft top, a matching top boot, removable side curtains, a hood scoop, driving lights, a driver-side mirror, and chrome bumpers with overriders. A tonneau cover will accompany the vehicle. Many of the photos in the gallery below were taken in late 2022.
Dayton 15″ wire wheels with knock-off hubs are mounted with 185/70 Vredestein Sprint Classic radial tires, and a matching spare is located in the trunk. Braking is provided by front discs and rear drums. Brake work performed during the refurbishment included replacing the brake booster, front rotors, and lines along with relining the rear shoes. The kingpins and leaf springs were also replaced, and the shocks were reconditioned.
The cabin was refreshed as part of the refurbishment and features front bucket seats and a rear bench that were reupholstered in beige leather with green piping. Appointments include a leather dash pad, a passenger-side grab handle, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, rubber floor mats, and a cabin heater.
A wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts Smiths instrumentation that includes a rebuilt 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, a fuel-level gauge, and a combination readout. The five-digit odometer was reset during the refurbishment and shows 490 miles, approximately 300 of which were added under current ownership; total chassis mileage is unknown. The overdrive switch on the dash now controls the driving lamps.
The BN6-sourced inline-six is said to have been rebuilt and bored to displace 2.9 liters by British Restoration Corp. during the refurbishment. Additional work included rebuilding the triple SU carburetors, heater box, wiper motor, and distributor as well as installing a replacement aluminum oil sump, spin-on oil filter, radiator, electric thermostat fan, high-torque starter, and fuel tank. The fuel pump was repaired and an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Toyota-sourced five-speed manual transmission. Work performed as part of the refurbishment included sandblasting various underside components, coating the chassis with polyester filler, sealing seams, and painting the underside as well as installing a lightened flywheel and a stainless-steel exhaust system.
The British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate lists the May 5, 1961 dispatch date along with factory colors, serial numbers, and equipment. Ten pages of refurbishment records are viewable in the gallery.
