Gorgeous S1 2000SC on carandclassic.co.uk

Cracking looker as you say :)
I understand the non std bits having read the description but wonder how the later door handles got there :?
It wouldn't put me off though, as my car looks like a parts dept explosion over several decades :p

That's lovely. The doors locks look standard to me...are you seeing something I'm not???

Maybe :LOL: I thought the handle pulls would be series one type at that time, were those later type already available in '67? I'm sure I've had cars on an H plate with S1 handles :? Could be a memory hiccup I suppose :oops:
 
I'd love to see a close up of the re-vamped dash arrangement as it looks pretty 'fully stocked' from the exterior shot of the car... :shock:
 
Look like S2 handles to me as well!,,
Maybe part of the export upgrade? Is that side strip the rare narrow one?

The reflectors are in the later palce too :?
I know nothing about the export stuff TBH so hopefully someone can enlighten me :)
 
It's certainly had a few upgrades. S2 Door handles and rear pillar badges, extra S2 reflectors. It's also had a bootlid handle fitted. It's hard to tell from the pictures but the side strips look like the aftermarket stick-on type. I quite like the side marker lights, I wonder if they're the NADA/P5B type or something generic?
 
Hi,
i know the car and they are the real and rare genuine narrow strips that were available for the series 1 cars. like the advert says the guy worked at rolls royce and did his own upgrades, electric wing mirrors ( yes ugly ) electric aerial, electric windows ( very well done ) as the instruments inside.

Ditto. We need some more detailed pictures. I'd like to see the custom tool kit too.
 
Do I note perished rubber on the jacking point :shock: nit picking in the extreme lol it is a real nice motor, wish it were mine :D , but I like that 2nd 3500S even more.

Certainly is a nice car,but I wonder as to how old the tyres really are :| if they are original I don't think I'd be trusting them to go far :x
 
There's a picture of the toolkit but rather than being custom-made it looks like a straight forward Rolls-Royce item fixed in.
The front inner wings look to have an angle rather than curving down. Is that usual on early cars?
