Barn Find V12 Cabriolet Project

Postby davidr » Sat Feb 11, 2017 1:21 pm

I came across this car the other day. Its had quite a lot of work on the body to make it sound. This was done professionally, as it happens by the same chap that did my V12 coupe for me.
It's a D reg V12 cabriolet and I'm told it does run.

Its in metallic light blue (Arctic Blue perhaps?) with grey interior.

The body work done includes all four lower quarters. Rear as below

The front lower quarters are new but not fitted.

The seats and interior are there and look to be in good condition

The targa panels are there (although I didn't see them).

The bumpers and chrome are all there and looked in reasonable condition.
This looks to me like a sound car that has had a lot of highly skilled work done and so a very good start for a project if you're not keen on welding!
The owner is looking to sell it - if you're interested let me know and I'll put you in touch.
