400se on the bay

Looks nice. Shame it has no history. Sure I've seen this car before?

Not clue as to the reserve but looks quite tidy apart from a bit of paint. Love the colour too. I don't recognise the registration as one that I've seen before. The sun is out so now is the time to sell.

It looks like it's had a colour change. Seats need recovering. I think they've past the conolising stage. Mileage seems a bit low for the year and no service history. That's only what I can see now even before an inspection. Chassis ??? On the plus side, could be cheap if the reserve is not set high. Gives the buyer a good start to put things right.

Isn't this the one the wall fell on?

[KKson]

No, that was mine, but previous owner!

There was one up for sale recently that a wall had fallen on while rebuilding and was an insurance right off and had been fixed. There was only one picture in the advert but I'm not sure if this was the one?

Yes...It happened when the chassis was being refurbed when Hamish (Tasmindevil) owned it...I think the wall fell on the front end of the shell only...I remember this car at a Wedgefest when OneFingerBandit owned it.I thought the paint job was stunning.....Ziga

Correct again sir.....Wonder why its for sale again...I don't think it was used very much so probably has some systematic issues related to this...All fixable...

On a 1990 400se the engine is a hot wire not a flapper could it be a 350 engine has no engine size badge on the plenum top

A 1990 can be a flapper if it's older stock when originally delivered. Badge on plenum not really important as the plenum could have been changed at some time and the actual cc is checkable by the engine number.

Yes a wall covering fell on it so it was taken away by the insurance company after much fighting to retain the car but they write it off. Also there should be a shed load of history/photos as I had numerous files of the work carried out plus chassis was totally reworked with new outriggers and tubes, its a pity if they have disappeared as it had photos of chassis, and all the rebuilds I did on HOB.
Check profile pic for happier days !!!
