JACK and JACK POINT

This small round panel covers the jack point on both sides. The complete original (non-functioning) jack and all tools are in the boot above the fuel tank.

RUST

Sadly, there is rust under the paint, mostly on the front fenders. The Princess is 51 years old, after all, so all things considered there is not too much rust.










calcification from drips through concrete

MIRRORS

Mirrors, interior and exterior.








ROOF

The roof; still in the original Sherwood Green from the factory...




DOORS

Presenting... the Doors!
