condition = Under restoration
additional comments = I purchased and drove the car back from Naracoorte in the Sth East to Adelaide in October 03.

The car was totally original with Moparmatic radio, rubber flooring and original upholtery.I replaced the flooring with Burgandy loop pile carpet as it was worn badly on drivers side.

Boot has black plush which i will change later on.Replaced all rubber seals.I want to re-upholster or replace the original seats with bench bucket seats front and back.I have a lower back problem so I am considering changing the trans to Torque Flite for more comfort around the city.

I am told the car was owned and restored by Graham Southcotts of Southcott Engineering (engine rebuilds etc) here in Adelaide.The motor, running gear, suspension and body work was I am told all done in their workshop.Keep you up dated later

regards, Bob
