A fully restored late production Mk1 Mexico, with its original and superbly preserved Type 49 shell and some choice upgrades. The car spent its first ten years being enjoyed as intended but by 1984/1985, was in need of some minor bodywork and was 'put away for a bit' which ended up being for 20 years or so! During this time, it was meticulously stripped, with all the original parts being logged and boxed (see Seller Rating) Purchased by its second owner who commenced a 14 month restoration (see Seller Rating) Subsequently sold to our vendor’s late brother, who treasured it for the last 17 years ensuring its continued mechanical health.
Attention in recent years include fitting an LSD, a new steering rack and twin 40 Weber carburettors, plus rebuilding the gearbox. The car has always been garaged and mainly just used at shows and weekend drive-outs, covering c.5,000 miles since its restoration. This striking Mexico is maybe not factory-original but easily could be made so, with the reassuring knowledge that the all-important AVO shell is in superbly well preserved condition. Accompanied by numerous spares, a gearbox and period marque/model literature.
