well due to circumstances beyond my control some of my cars have got to go.

so the daimler will have to be sold on.

here is a recap.

its had
new front wings
new rear wings
3 new doors
new bonnet
new boot
both sills
drivers floor
re sprayed in metalic bronze.
interior is nearly all there, just carpet needs replacing and the headlining needs a clean.
webasco sunroof needs attenion
needs a new front windscreen and finishing off.

engine turns over but dosn't run yet as it has no fuel in it. Cheesy

sorry to hear that but I do understand as had to buy a dog for the otherhalf when I bought the manual series3. Luckily she doesn,t know about the mk2 v8 donor. unfortunately I am not ina position to buy any more at the moment. There is an unfinished black daimler coupe which I am trying to get a figure for.......

Hi Arden,

What a shame you're selling up - she's beginning to look the business. I have had both Daimler & Jaguar series 2s and I love them both. Currently I have a jaguar in a good seventies colour - 'Moroccan Bronze'. I was dubious at the start but now I really like it. Good luck with the sale

well it's sold.

a breaker has bought it and will be breaking it up as soon as he gets it home.

its a shame but no one else wanted to save it.
