Post by deelcee »

1967 3.8 man o/d
just had it since february this year... was in spain from 1983-2013
currently tidying the interior...would have preferred leather interior but the ambla looks like new...door rubbers and furflex fitted,stained carpets and doorcards black...originally blue as was the car...
now a modern metallic red/salmon colour resprayed in 2011 in spain ...suits the car but not a very good job...respray on the cards for the near future...very nice to drive but needs the overdrive sorting!
i am no mechanic but thoroughly enjoying the little cosmetic jobs

nb. photos taken when i 1st got the car...spot the mk2 gear knob

Ambla lasts and lasts. Leather does not. Besides only the top parts of the seats would be leather, the rest has always been Ambla.

same color as mine, the name of the color is very confusing.

I am sure someone here will help with the overdrive. If no luck, I know a mechanic in the UK that you might consult.
