    Inspection

    A detailed condition and valuation report ('Taxatierapport') was compiled by classic car specialist Gert Beets, documenting the car's specification, modifications, and overall state.

    Gert Beets is described as a highly respected classic car specialist. The report notes the Weber carburettors, upgraded brake callipers, and Turrino wire wheels.

  2. Restoration

    A comprehensive restoration was carried out, documented by a set of photographs. As part of this work, the original Solex carburettors were replaced by triple Weber units, raising peak power from 145 to approximately 164bhp. Front brake callipers were upgraded and Turrino wire wheels fitted with Michelin tyres.

    The restoration is described as having taken place 'a few years ago' relative to the 2019 evaluation report; no precise date is given.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
