Reliant Scimitar – Recent Bodywork Restoration – British Classic Motoring
- High-quality bodywork restoration in 2020
- Very smart condition throughout
- Manual overdrive transmission
First registered in October 1977, this lovely Reliant Scimitar SE6A has manual overdrive transmission and Wolfrace wheels. Under the bonnet 138bhp Ford Essex 3.0 V6 with optional manual overdrive gearbox for the more sporting driver.
Being a SE6A 2nd generation Scimitar, it comes with better brakes, a stiffer chassis, revised suspension to improve the handling, better headlights and optional Wolfrace alloys.
In 2020 it underwent a bodywork restoration where it was treated to a glass-out repaint in two-tone metallic chestnut and cream, done to a high standard. New window rubbers were also fitted along with a new Tudor Webasto sunroof cover.
Interior was cleaned up and refurbished where needed, including new carpets and a new cloth headlining. Mechanically it needed little more than a new alternator, water pump and a brake overhaul. It was also treated to a thorough service with all fluids changed including the diff/axle oil.
