A Print of your series 2

Re: 1953 Series 2 for sale on ebay

Hi, I bought this car. Yes it is scruffy, but it is very solid and looks to have been kept off the road and in the dry for a lot of its life. The engine is sweet with good oil pressure etc. It needs a full respray and the interior is nowhere near as "nice" as described. The brakes are scar...
