Naseer added that he bought the unloved 1974 Mark-II in a derelict condition from Faisalabad. He had purchased it for Rs. 250,000 and spent an additional Rs. 850,000 on repairing the damage and its disintegrating parts.

He revealed that he imported a majority of the Mark-II’s original parts from abroad, which is why the restoration work had cost him dearly. He had also made certain improvements to the original car, including a new air conditioning unit, an automatic gearbox, powered windows, a powered sunroof, powered front seats, headrest-mounted LCDs for the rear passengers, disc brakes on all four wheels, powered door locks, and a remote engine start button.

There are also a lot of enthusiasts in Pakistan who share Naseer’s passion for restoring old cars.

Naseer disclosed that it had taken him two years to restore his Mark-II to its former glory. Given that he had refrained from sharing a price for his creation, it may be assumed that it is not for sale. Nonetheless, Naseer has done a fantastic job.
