Daimler XJ Series 2 Four Door Cabriolet For Sale For Sale (1979)
This car was restored and converted to a cabriolet by us approximately 22 years ago. Then it was sold to a wedding firm in Coventry, it has now returned to us. It had been sat in a stable block for at least the last 5 years. Hence the restoration is needed to return to good condition.
It requires medium restoration,the paintwork has faded, rear pan under bumper needs replacing, rest of bodywork seems to be very strong and solid. When it was restored by us originally the wings, sills, front lower panel and rear lower panel were replaced and all parts undersealed. Car has stood the test of time very well.
Interior leather is in fair condition with no rips or tears, but needs stitching replacing on some seams, we have stripped rear seat and started the process. carpets need cleaning but are in quite good condition. Some interior woodwork needs laquering, ski slope could do with re-veneering. Hood is in dark blue mohair which will need replacing, car is in a porsche metallic blue.
Mechanically, when the car was orignally done by us, all the mechanics were totally rebuilt; engine and gearbox, front and rear axles, brake and suspension. All these will need to be checked as the car has been stood, we have spun the engine over recently. Car probably covered 35,000 miles and then was stood up due to owners ill health. Car is running on 17 inch alloys, non standard, these enhance the look of the cabriolet, chromework is all in good condtion.
This car is sold as a restoration project, all work can be carried out by ourselves paying by stage payments to make it easy on the pocket or to someone with average amateur skills who could do the work to their own standards and cash flow.
We can deliver this car if required at cost.
