Equipment
Chrome spoke Borranis, Blaupunkt multiband radio, hood scoop, disc brakes (added later). Tired, cracked, discolored original paint, good original interior. Engine has been out and rebuilt, renumbered but retains the original internal number of 1301GT. Runs well after a recent service by Mark Allin.
Market commentary
This Pf Coupes engine was swapped long ago with the Coupe Speciale 0853GT and only recently swapped back to bring both cars back to their original configurations. It is something of a leftover in making 0853 right but in itself a fine example of a largely unrestored Pf Coupe. Its price here is indicative of an explosion in these cars values. Once donors for TR replicas, they are today nothing if not expensive. This crusty example carries patina a bit too far but can be driven with some satisfaction while waiting for the market to make it more valuable.
