Sellers description:
1967 Daimler V8 250 it runs and drives, everything works, however it has a serious Rap noise in the engine. The body is very solid with the exception of the two rear jacking points included in the pictures. a company named Martin Robey makes replacement metal parts to repair the jacking points. I have been using this car as a dailey driver up until the Rap started last week. The rear view mirror on the left is broken, but I have both halves. With a little TLC this can be a great little car.

This 1967 Daimler V8 250 has a damaged motor, it stars right up, but has a Rap noise in the engine and 2 holes in the oilpan, looks like a dropped rod. The transmission isn't getting in all gears and probably needs rebuild too.

The body is in good condition, with the exeption of the two rear jacking points included in the pictures.A welding shop can reenforece these easily. The interior is in fair to good shape, the wood trims need refinishing however. The left rear view mirror is broken , but have both halves.

When i got this car, I was hoping the engine might not need to be rebuild, but now it looks like it. The previous owner used it as a daily driver untill the engine noise strarted.

The car can be a restored or used as parts car, needs more than a little TLC to make it a great little car again.

I applied for an Indiana Title, but have not gotten it back from the BMV yet. Might take a few more weeks, but the car is sold with a good title.
