Although specific production numbers for this body style is unknown it is estimated that approximately 2360 1200 TV roadster / convertibles / spyders were made in 1959 including both European and American markets.. Speedometer on this car is in MPH so it is a model for export to American markets.

Car was started over 11 years ago and has been in and out of a few shops. It was recently recovered from a shop that was doing engine work – car required a new head.. Engine is still apart, top end is off, bottom end is still mounted in car. I have a replacment head that has been rebuilt, seals, gaskets and a couple other new parts, just was never put back together. Shop pushed it into corner and never finished it.

Engine needs put back together and car gone thru again as it has been sitting in various shops for over 9 years.

Things that had been done to it .. engine was rebuilt approximately 2011 /12 but head failed and was taken to another shop for repair. New ragtop put on in 2005/06 still looks to be in good shape but starting to show age, radiator had been cleaned, pressure tested and repaired, Gas tank had been cleaned pressure tested, repaired and coated inside and out (going need cleaned and purged again as it has bad gas in it) A removable center console with AM/FM cassette radio and modern gauges added. Removable rear speaker deck. Needs an exhaust system - no muffler. Needs brakes re-worked. Was painted in Jan 05 but since being in various shops, paint has faded and has some dings and dents. Body is sound, had some rust but was repaired prior to paint. Chrome is not bad but some is pitted., needs a good cleaning and polishing. Interior still needs redone, Side glass good, front windshield is cracked. Tires are dated, good rollers, 2 leak down. Has spare. NO AC or heat.

Pictures are of vehicle prior to paint and body work in 2005. current paint is faded and it has picked up a couple of small dings and paint scrapes from the repair shop. Pictures without the date code are recent pictures showing damage received at the maintenance shops.
