The underside maybe far worse. As Golf Juliet Tango said, "No harm in asking." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent cars, correctly set up they drive superbly and make lots of 50s cars feel like the cartsprung barges they are. I had a UK-built Light 15 with a skimmed head and a lightened flywheel as a daily driver. One day I'll get another. The only let down on them is the gearbox but you can fit an early DS four-speed. If that one has been in the country for a long time there's a good chance I've welded its sills - I was doing loads of them at one point in a previous life... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
