History
- 2011: new owner he had the bodywork fully stripped to bare metal
and the car painted in
Taiga metallic (072) by '355 Automobile
Restorations International'. Pictures of the work are
available in the history file. The mechanicals including
the engine, suspension and gearbox were all reassembled
by the Ferrari specialist SMDG. More recently, the car
has been maintained by RH Classics and used on high days
and holidays.
The bodywork presents very well indeed with straight
panel gaps and a deep finish to the paint. The chrome is
in good order and the engine bay is extremely clean. A
huge amount of work has been recently completed on the
interior and it now looks fantastic. The wood veneer has
been restored, the seats re-trimmed. The history file
shows older bills and receipts from BMW
specialists Jaymic, BMW Guildford and Munich Spares.
