1977 Austin Princes HL
Description
NO WOF REG ON HOLD
This is a project car. There are things that need doing, before it’s road worthy again
Super simple engine, easy to tinker with. Runs great – Drove it from Warkworth to Mt Albert two months ago, with zero issues
— Since then… clutch went… dammit. Clutch doesn’t disengage. Likely an easy fix. Definitely due for a clutch replacement though.
— Surface rust. Structurally sound for the most part, except for front left wheel arch, which is rotted through in one spot, will need attention there. (Has been kept under cover since parked up).
— Needs a new battery. I can’t afford one right now unfortunately, so best to bring one if you want to test the engine.
— Other bits and bobs, but those are the main headaches.
It’s been sitting still for probably two months, so will need to be jump started, and maybe a little assistance from engine starter spray. Fuels been sitting, but it should be alright.
…I can send some recent videos of the engine running too if needed ??
Really sad to be letting her go, I had hopes and dreams, but moneys getting tight
I know she’s not perfect, but I also know she’s pretty solid considering her make and age. These are becoming increasingly rare, so please be fair with offers
Just keep in mind you’re buying this as a project car, and from someone who doesn’t have the most complete knowledge of these cars, I’m an amateur enthusiast and still learning all the time, so please do your own due diligence. Cheers
Location: Auckland, Mt Albert
