Hi Guy's
Thanks for all your kind replies.
I will post more pictures of the interior tomorrow, all interior trim has been removed so you will see it raw.
I will also remove the tonneu cover to give a better side profile.
Ruairidh you are correct the carb is a Zenith 26 VME not sure of jet size but will check out any numbers, will also take pictures as requested, the floor is removed so nice and easy to take.
I purchased the vehicle last September and have only just stated to recommission, the vehicle had not been used for many years.
Generally in good condition I am just finishing the rewire, just new battery and starter wires to fit. My main concern is getting a good seating position, the present seat (simple bench) sits to high and lacks authenticity-any ideas gladly received.
As far as history is concerned it shows on various registers and I have documents relating to the last four owners, the last being a Mr Laska in the early eighty's .The story goes that it was found in a poor state in a east end lock up ! Difficult to find out any real facts original London registration details no longer exist.
Hope this makes sense, still getting over the shock of paying £7.80 for a glass of red wine at lunchtime!
