It is currently in place and hooked up but would probably need a rebuildI changed the oil and the old oil was cleanIt has hydro suspension which is in need of a refill. I do have an extra set of hydro-elastic bagsThis Elf has been sitting in a garage for 10-15 years. The previous owner purchased it and passed away before putting it on the roadI do not have a title or registration for the vehicleI do not believe it would take much to get this running but it is a project
For those unfamiliar with The Elf, it is basically a well-appointed Austin Mini with a trunk and modified grill
My plan was to restore this over the summer but have to replace my daily driver and can no longer put the necessary funds into the Elf
