1966 Renault 10

[bj928]

ok guys, been offered a 1966 Renault 10, was manual but been converted to manual, its pretty much rust free other than a patch that looks like the brake fluid has spilt onto a little, should be an easy fix in the front boot area, under the bonnet, needs a little tlc but could be used as a daily while its being sorted, could even be shown while being tinkered with. 1100cc engine

Hi
That looks a good one, like the wheels as well. Did you mean it's been converted from auto to manual ?

My Grandfather had one of these from new up until the early 90's really wished I had bought it and kept it.
It went very rusty and needed a set of new wings when it was a few years old. Even the inner wings where they bolted on needed the flanges repalcing. It all got repaired and was painted white again but with a green stripe rather like a Lotus Cortina. I'd suggest giving it a really good clean up and painting underneath plus a good covering of Waxoyl or similar. Where is it from just spotted it's RHD ?
I only drove it a couple of times and it went a lot better then the 1.1 Renault 5 I had at the time but the brakes felt terrible. They wern't servo assisted but worked quite well as it had discs all round.

looks good and clean, unfortunately as rare as they are they don't swap for big change. only ones that do are genuine r8 gordini's. 2-2.5k with mot. up to 4 maybe at a push.

This one was push button auto when new, but now its a manual, its also had an engine change at some point, but it is 99% rust free
