my restored r4 1983

[harrycoomes]

Hi having just retired my wife told me to find a hobby or else, have had many sports cars and restored several to show ,i decided to start again but at a more practical level.
hence the r4 ,new floor panels and repair sections, rear inner wings ,rear boot cross member lots body welding etc.
rebuilt motor,clutch, seals all brakes , ball joints .
lots of rust proofing and paint, the the car is now sold to avery happy frenchman and i,m looking for another ,this time with the more user friendly 1100 engine and disc brakes .
this one will be painted in gordini colours and i will keep it
best wishes harry

From 1 Coombes to another

Nice one Harry! I'm looking for an F4 van to replace my GTL; but they're pretty thin on the ground and pricey here in Portugal.
Good luck with your search.
All the best
Andy Coombes!
