excellent pics

one small discrepancy tho .............. the interior shot looks like it has a clock/glove pod fitted where as mine pic doesn't ???? will look into this to see if a base model/standard dash facia has been fitted along the way - im pretty sure the id tag and the slam panel are of the same car as it fits perfectly with the little rust marks on the back of the tag which mirror the rust marks on the slam panel (bit of detective work already done )

the interior shot seems to match, a base model with optional brown fishnets ........ i also have a picture of the interior when it was with its 2nd onwer in the early 80's ............. ie. base model door cars in brown, with brown fishnets

do you remember what the small silver thing is on the rear panel in between the reg plate and the drivers rear light cluster ? was it some sort of dead lock or alarm device ?? whatever, it matches with the rear panel

Nice jerry curls there Paul ! Ref the clock pod it does look like someone couldda tried to fill up the hole ??

[Paul69]

In my days of owning her, it did have the clock pod fitted. It had full chocolate interior. The hole in the rear was a previous owners attempt at security. A key operated switch was fitted to disable the ignition. If you need any original pics for your history records, pm your address and i will some in the post :-)

Paul, did you live in Linden avenue - if so, i got a pic of the car in the drive with a black cat sat on the rear spoiler was this yours ? .................. or are you the Paul from Dover ??????
