Some pics taken when it arrived at the garage.

The consensus is I haven't landed them with another complete dog, it has gone in all the usual Hunter places and knowing my luck probably some unusual ones! They even had it running for a few seconds.

I have been looking for one of these for a LONG time, 5 years in fact. In that time there have been a couple of close calls and several wild goose chases

I have been placing wanted ads in various places over the years with no luck but, out of the blue last August someone replied wondering if I still wanted a GLS!
I phoned him up and five minutes later I was the very proud owner of a yellow GLS which has not seen the light of day since 1994 (I really should stop buying cars sight unseen over the phone)

It was first registered 2 May 1972 in Cheshire. According to the club it's the second oldest surviving car known, by just over a week.












See through front and rear valance....




Some previous bodging will need to be sorted.


Interior looks quite good.




What horrors lurk beneath that underseal?




I had it collected today, The chap asked if they could be gone by 12 as "that's when the pub opens"
