History
My fine specimen – bought in Autumn 2022 - in silver metallic was originally Danish and was originally sold from Roskilde, Zealand. Except from a re-finish some years back, the vehicle is unrestored and very well-kept both on the outside and inside. BBS rims and Italian NARDI wooden sports steering wheel have been installed subsequently, but the original ones are in my possession. The vehicle was used in the film about the famous Danish actor Preben Kaas, that will premiere du- ring Spring 2023.
