I am currently looking at an AC Sociable, and have a few questions I am hoping someone can help me with.
1. There is a rectangular block on the floor just to the left of the brake pedal. It looks like something original, and I was wondering what it is. Something to do with the brake ratchet?
2. Is there an easy way to check that both of the ignition circuits are working? It is only something I thought of after I came away from looking at the car, so I can't get at it easily to see.
3. There are clips that hold the front down. It looks like the front used to hinge (for easy access?) or lift off, but has been permanently fixed. Anyone know what it should be like?
4. And finally - prices. Anyone know what they have been going for recently? This is a very original looking car. New upholstery some years ago, but certainly not an over-restored trailer queen.
Even more finally - I live in Chipping Norton, Oxon. Any other owners near here?
Thanks for any help, and I look forward to joining the club and meeting fellow owners if I buy the car.
